That's what everyone is calling her at the hospital. When the nurses heard she was coming in from Alaska, no one wanted her as a patient. Her stroke was B-A-D. Reading a few comments her family members have made, she shouldn't have been alive. She definitely shouldn't have been breathing on her own, but she was. Her doctors declared her right arm paralyzed and then she moved her fingers. Everything she has done has been amazing. When I was there, she was breathing through a trach. She had semi-coordinated movement of her left arm. She could move her left leg a little, but that was it. A little over a month later, Kendra not only took her first steps, but she walked 33 feet with help while holding onto a rail. 33 FEET...from the girl who shouldn't be able to move anything, including her lungs.
I'm amazed by my friend and so thankful for the miracles that God is performing in her recovery. Everyone is praying for her to walk out of the hospital and to return home to Alaska. Keep praying with us!
God is so good, many prayers went up, and we all
ReplyDeleteneed to pray a prayer of thanks for these answers. So often we forget to thank Him when we get answers to our prayers. Will continue to pray for Kendra.
