Prayers Needed

[BusynMember]

You are a strong person. For both you and your wife, please take care of yourself. Eat, sleep, try to focus on work while you are there. The type of stress you face requires taking care of your body and your mind. Visit the hospital chspel to spend a few minutes alone and at peace.

Continued prayers for all of you. You are all in my thoughts.

I am only now seeing this. I am adding my prayers to the rest. It is so hard to deal with fears especially when the present moment is fraught. And you holding the three of them at least in part.

While there is still peril it seems so much has already been met and resolved.

My son took pills. Ten years ago. Because it was a gesture in front of me I could call the ambulance and there was no lasting harm.

I seem to block the memory and only recall being numb and mad. There is just so much.

Take care.

Thank you for the update. I think that your clear thinking will be the anchor your wife needs during this horrific time.

I am so glad your son is doing so much better!

I pray this is the start of recovery and new beginnings.

Update from my wife:

They are removing the life support this afternoon. By the time I arrive to the hospital the procedure will either be in progress or complete.

Praying for his survival. This is a big day.

He made it. He is off life support. The doctors say that the life threatening phase of this nightmare is essentially over.

Thank you Lord, and thank you all for your prayers. I have no doubt they helped create this outcome.

His next milestone is coming off the ventilator. They estimate up to one week for that. And then the part we are most dreading now that he has survived this suicide attempt - his neurological state.

Keeping your family in my thoughts today. I agree with SWOT that you need to be careful of your own health. If you are having trouble eating, eat small, healthy things throughout the day.

 

[pasajes4]

Great news! Praying for positive outcomes. I know it is difficult, but it is essential that you guys get some rest and a bit of time away from the hospital. His recovery is going to be physically and emotionally draining.

 

[Littleboylost]

Continued prayers and hope. This is such an emotional and physical exhausting time for you all. Please do keep us posted.

Praying that this child has no serious neurological damage snd comes back to you.

 

[BloodiedButUnbowed]

A very fast update. They hoped to do a brain MRI today to determine the extent of any neurological damage, but his heart rhythms are too unstable. He has needed external pacing at various points throughout the day and he is in atrial flutter, whatever that means. Need to do some research. For this reason he cannot tolerate being moved to the MRI machines.

We continue to cope. He has, at least, not required life support again. For that we are most grateful.

One day at a time. This journey will be measured in months.

I can't imagine the stress.
