My friend Trish, who is 7 months pregnant, is in the ICU with a brain infection. It isn’t responding to antibiotics. Her latest MRI shows it is growing. Surgery must be done this afternoon.
You could not find a person with more genuine warmth than Trish. She has such a gentle spirit and a very deep faith. One of my favorite things about her is that she loves to say, “It’s a God thing.” She is quick to recognize his hand in her life, good and bad.
Trish has two darling little boys and is expecting a baby girl in early August. I know her #1 concern right now is her children—especially her unborn daughter. Please pray the surgery goes well and that the doctors are able to remove the abscess. Right now, she is numb on her right side. Pray the surgery will restore her ability to move and feel, and also that it will eliminate her terrible headaches. Please lift up her baby daughter, that she will be protected from all harm. Doctors are ready to deliver the baby if necessary, as well.
Thank you.
Definitely saying a prayer now for Trish, her family, and wisdom for her Doctors.
