Robin Home from Hospital

Robin just now called to let me know she is home. She gave me the long version of her ordeal, but requested that I just give you the basics for now. She has had to run to her doctor for some tests and will post the details later.

She has received 6 units of blood and has about 32 “stick marks” from attempts by the hospital staff to take blood for tests and give blood when she got low. They sent her home Thursday night but she is very concerned that the doctors have not evaluated her situation correctly and thinks she may have to go back to the hospital soon.

Please, please pray that the doctors (there are several) will interpret her test results accurately and that she will get the exact treatment she needs to get her bleeding under control.

As any of you who has had to “run defense” for a loved one in the hospital already knows, details concerning the patient’s condition can get overlooked and mistakes made all too easily. Robin feels that the staff might possibly be missing something important and would appreciate your prayers for wisdom for all the medical staff involved with her case.

Thanks so much,

Kathleen

    Thank you SO much for keeping us updated, Kathleen!

    Praying for the medical team, and of course, for Robin. May the Lord grant wisdom and peace to all…

    In full agreement with P* — both in thanks for keeping us up to date with Robin’s health, thank you so very much Kathleen!, and in continued prayer for Robin’s restored health and the medical team’s ability to see exactly what is going on in Robin’s health and God’s gift of wisdom to all involved.

    Robin, please don’t forget that you and your family are just as much a part of your medical team as the medical professionals! Much of the time they don’t want you to know that. If you feel something isn’t right, it’s your and your husband’s job to do something about it! This is something we came to learn much too late regarding Kenny’s health when he was a baby…

    Praying for a peaceful and happy Sabbath and Mother’s Day to you all as well!

    Love,
    Marty

    Kathleen,

    Thank you for the update on Robin. It always seems to take a lot of sleuthing to get at mysterious health problems. I have been dealing with some for years without solution myself.

    Lord Jesus, Please bring Robin and her medical care givers the clues that they need to solve her blood loss problem without delay. Fill Robin and her family with your peace, which surpasses our understanding, throughout this. Then shine your healing light on her and restore her to perfect health.

    Linda
