Prayer request

Kerissa • Sep 07, 2020

Friends, could you please pray for me?   After spending 10 long days in the hospital, I was finally able to go home on Friday.

But it’s been very hard—I’m extremely weak all over, and I’ve also been having these horrible episodes where my heart rate shoots up, I feel hot and cold at the same time, have chills and teeth chattering, sweat a ton, and just feel plain awful.   We thinks it’s due to my dysautonomia (autonomic nervous system dysfunction from the mitochondrial disease), and it really scares me. 😔😢

Please pray that I will stay strong and trust in the Lord.   It’s hard not to lose heart from all of this.   But I’m trying to focus on God and not my fears.   Thank you for praying for me. ❤

Hi, friends, I had a whole other post ready to go with some good news, but instead, I have an urgent prayer request. I started experiencing sudden onset numbness, tingling, and weakness in my whole left leg, and it’s been so scary. 🥺 It just came on out of the blue. I was doing so well with physical therapy each week (able to walk fast on the treadmill and leg press 40 lbs), and now, I have to limp because my left leg is soo weak. I really want to avoid the ED as much as possible, so I saw one of my doctors today. She’s concerned I’m having a big motor nerve issue. 😭 The plan is to see a physical medicine specialist, have a nerve conduction study, get an urgent MRI done, as well as see my PCP and pain doctor on the 25th and 29th for further evaluation/testing. I know I already said this, but it really has been so scary to lose function so quickly. Can you pray that I will trust the Lord and not worry? It’s been very hard, so I’d really appreciate your prayers and support in the coming weeks. Thank you so much. ❤️
