Title: NORTHERN ROSE needs all the prayers she can get
Post by: klaasend on September 16, 2011, 10:41:39 PM
Evening Monkeys. I have come here to the Prayer thread to ask you for your prayers for our Northern Rose. Her oldest son was hit by a drunk driver on his motorcycle  and has a broken back and internal bleeding. Her other son has had another lung surgery his 4th. They are waiting for the biopsy results from the part of the lung they removed. 

She and her family can use all our prayers. Thank you all very much.

Bringing this over from the prayer thread so it is more visible.  This must be so hard on Northern and her family. 

Praying for you Northern Rose  ::MonkeyTears::

Northern, you and your family are in my heartfelt prayers.



Father, we lift up Northern Rose and her family and ask for healing, comfort, and a real sense of Your presense as she walks this path that is so difficult. Guide her steps and walk with her. Be the lamp unto her feet and let her not stumble. Hold her hand and let Your peace and calm flow into her. You have promised that we are beckoned to enter Your throne room boldly and we do that now to ask Your help for Northern Rose. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

Thank you all for your prayers.  I can not express fully how much them mean to us all at this time.  Oldest is still in hospital under observation.  Internal bleeding has slowed down but not stopped, nothing done on his back yet as it is so badly broken they do not have a game plan on what to do that will not paralyze him at this point.  Need swelling to go down first.

Lung surgery son is at home now and we are still awaiting results of the biopsy.

Thank you, Northern, for the update. You and your family are in my prayers and thoughts and heart. I wish I could just wrap you up in love and make this all go away. I pray that each day looks a bit brighter, the news a bit better, until the sun shines again for you all. Hugs, Northern..... I won't stop asking God to heal and comfort until that day comes. Love You, mean it!

Northern Rose, my prayers go out for all of you, and my heart goes out to you.  Prayers are going out that don't even have words, but the Lord knows what I am asking, I feel it.  Please let me know if I can do anything at all.  I know that sounds so cliche, but I mean it.  Call me anytime day or night, even if you just need to yell at somebody, I will understand.

Please know you have so many here who care so very much.

Love you, mean it (Special thanks to Peaches for that expression of love)!

Glad lung surgery is home, prayers the biopsy results are negative.

Even more prayers for hospitalized son that the swelling goes down and the bleeding stops.

Double prayers for you Northern, I am worried for you and wish there was something I could do but alas all I can do is pray.  ::MonkeyAngel::

Not much change to report.  Internal bleeding continues, goes up and down in volume so not steadily decreasing. Dr's have him on blood thinners for clots so it is a balancing act between stopping the bleeding and stopping clots. He has been moved out of observation room and into normal room which is a small step forward.  Nothing will be done about back until bleeding stops but he can still wiggle his toes.  We thank you for your continued prayers.  Your support is greatly appreciated.  When things seem overwhelming I think about the monkey prayers and it gets me through knowing how much support we have.

Thank you all for your continued prayers.  They seem to be working miracles beyond what Dr's can explain.  He has been fitted with a full upper body brace called a clamshell brace and he stood with help yesterday.  Bone shards have stayed away from danger areas in his spinal canal, broken vertebra have not shifted and broken ribs are healing nicely.

I called the Dr for follow up appoint for lung son and though they did not tell me straight out the results of the biopsy they did say it was nothing to worry about and they did not need to see him till mid Oct.

Things are moving along slowly.   He has been taught to swing his legs over the side of his bed and get himself into the sitting position with his brace on which means he can eat real food again.  First request was sushi.

After every new thing he does they do xrays to make sure that nothing has moved especially the bone shards.  So far so good. He has taken a few steps.  He is getting very impatient and wants to try more walking than what they are allowing but also knows that poses dangers with his back. 

Thank you all for your continued prayers.

Things are moving along slowly.   He has been taught to swing his legs over the side of his bed and get himself into the sitting position with his brace on which means he can eat real food again.  First request was sushi.

After every new thing he does they do xrays to make sure that nothing has moved especially the bone shards.  So far so good. He has taken a few steps.  He is getting very impatient and wants to try more walking than what they are allowing but also knows that poses dangers with his back. 

Thank you all for your continued prayers.

 ::MonkeyDance::  Wow, excellent news!  You are having to "hold him back".  That's wonderful!  Sushi?  My choice would be more like steak or bacon  ::MonkeyHaHa::

Yesterdays xray showed nothing has moved which is good and bad news.  Bone shards in spinal canal have stayed put and not a danger where they are but vertebra have not fused like they had hoped.  He is at home and has to go in for weekly xrays.  Brace stays on for at least another 6 weeks or until vertebrae fuse and then they will decide what to do re surgery. 

His craving yesterday was pumpkin soup and as I was trying to roast the pumpkin in the oven  I noticed my oven packed it in.  Our thanksgiving is this weekend.  Wonder how many days it would take to roast a turkey when your oven only goes to 180?

Lung son is doing well.  His follow up in the 12th.

Good to hear from you, Northern.

Good to hear the news you bring about your sons too!

Been thinking of you.

BTW ... you can cook a turkey breast in the microwave oven. I do it all the time. 10 minutes per pound, on a plate with a little water, covered and vented with plastic wrap.

Always very moist and delicious.

Sorry about your oven.

Good to hear your son has a good appetite!

You inspired me to make this for you, Northern!

We have been using our weber BBQ to do our turkeys lately.  We have turkey often.  It only takes about 3 hours unstuffed in the weber for a 15-16lb turkey and it's soooooo good.

That is good news Northern. It's small steps forward but it is going forward. Continued prayers for you and your sons.  Years ago my mom cooked our Turkeys at 160 for 12 to 14 hours. That was before they said you shouldn't cook them at that temp. But we never got sick.  ::MonkeyHaHa::  Hope you can get your oven fixed before this week end.

I'm so happy that the one son is doing well, Northern!!  ::MonkeyDance::

It sounds like the other son has the potential to recover as well, and you and he are in my thoughts and prayers for a miraculous outcome!!

You have some good suggestions for the turkey here, but I'm no help with that. I fix turkey pretty often, but always brine it first and cook it on a high temperature until it browns before covering the top and then turning down the heat. I watched Alton Brown do it once and it was sooooooo good and fool proof that I haven't done it differently since!

It doesn't matter if you fix peanut butter sandwiches, Northern....... you're going to have a great Thanksgiving! You've come through a lot, and I know, you have a long way to go yet, but every day you're taking it a step at a time and being and doing exactly what you need to do! ATTA GIRL, Northern!! What a blessing you are to your boys!

Thanks for the updates! Please take care of YOU!!  ::MonkeyKiss::

From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you.  It has been so difficult and some days it gets overwhelming.  Every day I thank god for being so blessed that I have all my children.  Had one of the vertebra broken 1/2 inch higher I would be dealing with a child in a wheel chair right now.  As things sit now we are so lucky as there is hope.  I do not worry about the future right now or I would be in a loonie bin, I just cherish each day I have my kids and watch both boys recovery and cheer and cry inside as they each get stronger.

The repairman came out yesterday and I have a functional oven   ::MonkeyDance::

Thank you.  Blessing to your family as well.  What I thought was just going to be the immediate family expanded as the day went on and I kept adding chairs to our table.  It was a wonderful day and had one of oldest son's friends join us who is in the army and a friend of other son who would have been alone.

No shortage of food even though I swore to make a very simple dinner.  When my mom came over she was loaded with cabbage rolls, pyrogies and all sorts of other goodies including a Swedish apple torte she made as she was "bored".  Ended the evening with a nice game of Apples to Apples and it felt like a normal get together but with much deeper meaning.

Tomorrow is a big day for lung son.  Gets results of biopsy and recovery status during his follow up appointment.

Guy that hit him had not one scratch on him, not even a broken nail.  I spoke to the prosecutor today and though he could not tell me alot as son is an adult, he was very clear that he was not even entertaining a plea deal, this was a cut and dry case from what he has read and speaking with the police that were on scene, and he is considering increasing the charges.

Body cast was removed and he took several steps without it  ::MonkeyDance::   ::MonkeyDance::

After second xray things stayed in place and Dr.'s were really happy

He may be able to take the cast off for short periods around Christmas if things continue to progress the way they have and then start Physio.

Could not ask for a better Christmas present.

We are so grateful for all the prayers , thank you all so very much.  Had to take accident son for xrays this afternoon on his ribs and lungs as he is starting to have problems breathing and they want to rule out a blood clot in the lung that was punctured.

Good news to share.  Back xray this week was good and he should be able to start physio in the next few weeks.  One step at a time literally.

Boys are each getting stronger and making progress.  I am starting to get anxious about court which is getting close.  Wondering if I can keep it together so I do not need to get bailed out.  Still can not believe the POS is pleading not guilty.

Great news about your sons making progress.   ::MonkeyCheer4::
Hang in there Northern Rose!  I can't imagine what you've been through, and knowing you have to stay strong to get through with court.  Keeping you and your sons in my thoughts and prayers.   ::MonkeyAngel::

If I were in your place, I'd be wondering about the possibility of needing bail too.

Northern Rose  It's been a long hard road for you and the family. I am so happy to hear things are getting better. Continued prayers for you all. Last I heard the Monkey Bail account was full and Trimm has the jet on stand bye. Just give a holler if you need it. ::MonkeyKiss::

I am so glad that things are going in the right direction.  If you feel the need to get bailed out I hear the monkey bail fund is full and the jet is ready!  ::MonkeyHaHa::
