MEDICAL UPDATES / PRAYER REQUESTS: There are several things we need prayer about regarding Hope and the family: 1. She is beginning to develop body memory symptoms from the accident. This is causing her to have nightmares while sleeping and the sensation of not being able to breath and feeling of drowning. Once she wakes up she realizes or remembers what she dreamt about and then has severe attacks of pain and anxiety. Over the past 3 days, 2 of the mornings she woke up with a 10 and this morning a 7. 2. Sleep is essential to her healing and the brain swelling to decrease, so please continue to pray that her body will relax and not experience these memories. 3. The pain management and medicine is hard to balance. Especially with the mornings of her waking up in this type of pain. Please pray for wisdom for Ben & Melody. Also, that the medicine will not cause nausea. 4. Hope begins her rehab tomorrow at Baylor. There was sadness with Hope when she understood that she would be not attending school, but doing homebound work on more basic assignments. She had worked very had to be in AP and so this is very hard for all of them to grasp and work through. Melody is having a very hard time not knowing where Hope is currently and how far she needs to go. So we need to cover them with prayers in all of this. 5. We will be posting financial matters this week and ask that you pray and consider donating as there are several pressures they are already facing. This is causing additional stress on the family as Melody cannot work and needs to give full attention to Hope during this time. Not only as Mom & caregiver, but teacher as well. So please pray for God to meet these needs! Keep Praying! Keep Fighting Hopey!
