I'm not sure how many guys still visit here but I need some help from some prayer warriors. My granddaughter was born with a heart defect called HLHS and went through four open heart surgeries before her third birthday and a heart transplant when she was six. She did great with her new heart. I spent a lot of time with her since the day she was born. We would go fishing with me. She loves to Shoot her bows and go hunting with me and has lived with my wife and me several times for months at a time. Well she is twenty one now and started having a few problems about a year ago, a type of rejection. It has progressed to the point that she needs another transplant and they listed her a couple weeks ago so now we are just waiting on the phone call. I know prayer works, I've seen it. I would appreciate it if you guys would pray for her too " If two or more"...Thank you guys It means the world to me. I love that girl so much

Thank you all so much. Sorry for the slow response. The transplant happened Thursday. She’s in ICU… they couldn’t close her yet because of swelling and a couple complications but all in all they say she doing well…so many lines and tubes and monitors. Just feel so helpless. Just putting it in his hands but it’s hard.. really hard.
-
Still praying hard. :pray:
-
Thank you guys. God bless you all. Prayers are working. They closed her this morning and are starting to ween her off some of her meds. Might maybe get the intabation tube out tomorrow.
-
Mark, just saw this but never to late, she and your family will be in my daily prayers!
-
Thank you.. she’s making progress but things still come up. Fighting a low grade fever now.
-
Prayers still going her way. And will continue until you say stop.

Mark, continued prayers offered. Thanks for the 'updates'; keep them coming.

They got her off the ventilator yesterday. Still trying to figure out what is causing low grade fever.. showing some opacity in one of her lungs think maybe light infection. From being on the ventilator for eight days… removed a couple drains…I’m sleeping in her room some nights in my truck in the parking lot the others…making some progress all be it slow…Thank you for your prayers very much!! We surely do live by them.
-
May the Lord's hand rest his hand upon her. She is blessed to have such support.
-
How is she doing? Continued prayers.

Ditto here

Sorry for the delay guys. Been extremely busy last few days. All great news though. Once they got her off the ventilator she started improving right away. She did have a lung infection and they got that cleared up with loads of antibiotics. Steh started eating little by little until they were fairly sure she could eat enough to get enough nutrition then they pulled the feeding tube and the last of her chest drains. She was very happy to be able to talk and eat and use her hands again. I will update again in a couple days. Have lots of things to do the next couple days...going into discharge mode!! Thank you guys again for your thoughts and prayers. They are most definitely working! I have some stories to tell when I get some time
-
Thanks for the update. :pray:
-
Great news.
-
She is home :pray:
-
Guess that could be taken a couple ways...She is at my house. Came home on seventeen different meds. Still on oxygen and strict diet. She is so happy to be here. This girl is amazing. We have truly been blessed.

Just a little update for you guys that were praying for my granddaughter. Overall she is doing pretty good. She is active. Goes to rehab for workouts three times a week, is eating well and is in pretty good spirits. She has her moments when she feels a little depressed wondering what her future holds. She has been diagnosed with rejection. They are fighting it with lots of different antirejection drugs but big doses of prednisone..a steroid which I think is a little responsible for her mood swings. I believe God is healing her..in his time. God bless you guys.
