When I came back from showering/etc at Ronald McDonald House I found out that Maddie had urinated a tiny bit.. A few drops.. It is such a small thing but I feel like it gives us something-anything to hold onto. I had been praying all day for some sign from God that he hears and is going to take care of her. I don't know if this is it but I felt encouraged.
Ron just caught the Dr's at rounds and their report is that nothing has changed. They don't feel that her urinating is anything significant. I guess it is literally only a few drops. More wait and see they said.
They keep testing her to see how her blood is coagulating. I don't really have an answer for that except that last I heard she was not bleeding as much as yesterday.
Numerous people have been sending us their stories of overcoming the odds despite what Dr's and everyone else says and that has been encouraging to us.
I added the last picture we took of her on 7/10 before all the downhill stuff happened. Hoping this will help us remember to keep positive vibes and remember she recovered once and hopefully can again
Thanks everyone we are truly grateful.
God please give us patience and trust in you.
Rachael, Ron,
ReplyDeleteNever for a moment doubt that miracles can happen!
Madeline, hang in there Sweetheart!
All our love to the three of you!!
Spent a lot of time thinking about you today! Corissa and I shared time together talking about your sweet baby girl. Tears were shed and praises to god were given for your strength. I have received a heart change from god after all this crying out to him. So I want you to know that my life has been chaged FOREVER because of you guys and your diligence to seek god. Crazy because we have never met! Hang in there. I'm sure I have no idea the pain. But I know he is faithful to comfort. Look to jehovah rapha - hebrew for "to heal" "to restore" "to make healthful". That's physically for the sweet pea and mentally for momma and daddy! I'm standing with god with you!
ReplyDeleteP.s. I love the song "your song". Keep singing to her. I'm sure she thinks you're an angel when u sing. ;)
ReplyDeleteI think we may be family, I am a Korschgen too. If, or if not, I touched by you guys. I can't imagine your feelings. I praise God that you know him too! He is comforting Madeline right now. He is there and his plan is so much larger than we can even comprehend. This has touched my life, I look at my kids differently. I pray right now... "God, please bless this family, put your arms around Madeline, take all her pain away in this instance, heal her, be with her forever. Give Rachael and Ron strength and courage, take away their fear, their pain, give them the patience they need, put your holy spirit in them and in me, too. I ask this in your name lord, amen.
