Prayers for Parker

Here is another update on Parker. This is from the e-mail that her parents sent out yesterday.

We have been diagnosed with Guillain-Barre’ Syndrome. We are in intensive care and may be there for a while. It is affecting the fatty sheeting around the nerves. She is week, trembely, having trouble talking, swallowing, and is drooling. She is hurting. They are continuing testing to make sure it is not something else. Hopefully they can rule out anything else and start treatment tomorrow. They are keeping here in ICU because it can cause breathing problems. Please pray for us. Right now it looks like a mild case.

I'm heading down to see them this morning. Please keep Parker and her parents (Jack and Kristy) in your prayers. Unfortunately, I know all too well how they feel and what they are facing. Thankfully, I know the power or prayer, the encouragement of friends, and the peace of the Spirit.
