My Aunt- PLEASE PRAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys,
My Aunt was working out and started having a bad headache on Saturday. She is is battling Leukemia and breast cancer right now so Her husband Rob thought it might be a good idea just go see the doctor to make sure everything was ok. By the time she got to the hospital she was already in a coma. She suffered a Ruptured Brain Aneurysm. This has nothing to do with the cancer. I am telling you this because my mother wants me to start a Pray circle. Right now the only thing that will help my Aunt is if everyone might say alittle pray for her. I would really appreciate it. At this point it is a 50/50 chance but progress was shown last night as my Aunt gave a thumbs up sign and squeezed my mother hand twice. Please just take a moment and pray- its our only hope!

I talked to my mom this morning and last night when my Mom got to the hospital- She went over to Linda and said- Hey Linda its me Kathy will you please squeeze my hand if you can hear me- and Linda squeezed twice. Which is very promising. She also gave the doctor two thumbs up but when asked to show two fingers she only showed one. She is still in and out of consciousness or the coma. Rob finally is doing better but still knows that we are not out of the clear by a long shot. The concern now is that they can't find where the aneurysm ruptured. This is so important because Linda could have another Aneurysm and if she does she will not survive it. My mom said that pretty much they had to shave her head and that she has a huge tube coming out of the top of her head to drain the blood. Right now we need to pray that they find where the aneurysm ruptured and that no brain damage took place or that it isn't to severe. I did do some research I have NOT told my mom these statistics however I think she might already know- The statistics break down like this: 1/3 of people with ruptured aneurysms die before they get to hospital. Of the rest that make it to hospital another 1/3 die after arriving. And of the rest of this number 40% suffer severe brain damage. All we can do is pray- the fact that Linda is responding to family is FANTASTIC. We all know Linda is a very strong person who likes to be in control so I have no doubt that she is fighting and fighting. I think at this point all of Chattanooga is praying for Linda. I know Signal Mtn Presbyterian Church has a pray circle going and I started a pray circle at First Centenary United Methodist. Linda's son David has a huge pray circle going around DC and Rebecca has stepped up to the plate and really has not left her Mother's side. Becca also has been keeping a journal of all the updates. Pray is a very powerful and I know by putting my whole trust in God that everything will turn out the way that it should. I will continue to keep you updated. Lets just pray a Miracle Happens!!!

Much Love,
