We just got back from the 1:00 visit to the ICU. Pat looks really good. She was sound asleep when we arrived. About 10 minutes into our visit, Jana said that she wanted to pray with Pat before visitor swap with Brian and Laura. As Jana leaned over to quietly pray into Pat's ear, Pat awoke. She immediately recognized Jana and gave her hand a very very strong squeeze.
Pat recognized Jerry and me when she awoke as well. She is very quiet this afternoon, not nearly as restless and she seems to be at peace. We are still very hopeful that the ventilator will be removed later today.
I know that we have asked that you pray for Pat, but I would ask that you simply tell God - Thank you. Thank Him for the wisdom of the physicians and medical staff that detected Pat's condition. Thank Him for the amazing Dr. Brown who has done so many of these surgeries he could do them blindfolded. Thank God for the ICU staff that are taking care of Pat. Thank Him for the rapid recovery that we have seen this week in mom. Thank Him that all of the complications where quickly met with a rapid resolution. Thank Him that we did not lose Pat. Finally, thank God for what He has in store for Pat to do.
We love you and appreciate you.
