Monday update
Today Ashlyn had a central line put in. It took a while to find a good vein. But they finally got one and now they will not have to keep poking her for new lines when the other ones go bad. She had a CT scan done and neurosurgery said it looks fine. She still has blood there but she is not bleeding. Her belly has not gotten worse. She is on small feeds, but her belly is not moving much. They feel that she was not bleeding from her pancreas, but she had a GI bleed. She is on a Nexium drip to repair any damage. They did lighten her sedation a little today and will a little more tomorrow. She has been moving her left side a little, but not much on her right. Please continue to pray for a complete healing. Thank you so much for all your prayers and support.

Liz,Todd,Kiernan,Preston,Katelyn and Ashlyn, First Happy Birhday Preston I hope your brownies for school today were good, I heard the brownies I made last night were not done don't tell Uncle Tim, he's always picking on me about my cooking, when it's my turn to cook dinner I will make sure it's done. Liz and Todd I'm glad to hear today went well we have been checking and calling to see how everything was going, we said a special prayer last night for the doctors. I'm glad Erin and Beau are here I know how special you guys are to them. Sleep well and know that Ashlyn is in so many peoples prayers and most important in God's hands, I know he is taking special care of her. Lizzy you wrote some words to a song and all I can think of is a song that I have sang to the kids since they were babies some of the words are, Lift your eyes and see his face know HIS grace forever, May the Lord Mighty God Bless and keep you forever. How true it is, I know you and Todd know HIS Grace and trust in HIM it's evident when we see you both with your children. Know we have your whole family especially Ashlyn,(stay strong little one God has a special plan for you), in our thoughts throught the day and night and also our prayers. Good night. Love Robin

Good Morning,
ReplyDeleteI probably won't be at the hospital today...you all have a good day, know the Opa and I are always thinking and praying for all of you, and God is carrying you very gently through all of this. Stay strong and take comfort knowing a lot of people love you and pray for you always.
Love Oma and Opa
Praise God for good news, I am praying for the miracle that we all desire, a full healing for Ashlyn. I hope her sufferings will bring people that care for her to know Jesus in a personal way. God never wastes a hurt. We don't know the why's and we may never but God does. Keep trusting in God for everything and He won't let you down not ever. We are sending our love and prayers, the Skinners
