Today’s Update on Joyce

They moved Joyce to the rehab facility yesterday. Wellstar Paulding NH and Rehab. 600 West Memorial Drive, Dallas. C Station Room 203.

She was struggling with what the hospital called hospital delirium yesterday. We are hopeful that her mind will clear as the pain meds work their way out of her system & that her heart function returns to its normal.

We all want her to return to home in a few weeks. Thanks again for your prayers and concerns .

Message and request for prayer from Toni Cox on behalf of Donna Parrish’s grandson Noah……..

 

I have a prayer request and praise for Hollydale UMC. I was just in a conversation with Donna Parrish and she shared that her grandson. Noah will be deployed at zero 400 tomorrow morning(Wednesday) to go serve his time in the military in Germany. That is a huge thing for Noah and for this family.  I asked that we all pray for him for safe travels and for strength and for a new way of life, praise God!

Update for Joyce...

Saturday - 6/8 - Joyce had a good day.  Worked with PT and OT and sat in the chair for a while.  Her lab numbers are moving in the right direction.  Hopeful for the transfer to WellStar Paulding NH/Rehab on West Memorial Drive on Monday.  Other than not being able to watch the Braves play, she is in good spirits.  Thanks again for the prayers. 

SUNDAY - 6/9 - Urgent prayers are needed.  They think that Joyce had a heart attack last night (6/8).  Her enzymes were elevated but the ultrasound did not show any signficant blockage.  They are waiting on the ECHO and additional blood work.

6/8 update on Joyce

Joyce has been accepted into a rehab facility. Prayers that she is stable to be moved on Monday. Some of her blood work is out of the normal range but not uncommon for someone her age who just went through surgery. She had some of the same issues when she broke her wrist. The PT was pleased with her progress today. All answers to prayers. We are grateful for all of the ones you are sending up for her. ❤️

Good morning,

Marsi sent the below update on Dottie with a few more details from her fall.  Please continue to keep her, the medical team and her family in your prayers as Dottie heals from her wounds and recovers from this severe fall she had.  Thank you. 

We would like to thank everyone for their prayers for my mother-in-law, Dottie Arcaro. She had a brain bleed, broke her collar bone, and broke her pelvis ring. They got the brain bleed stabilized. They did surgery on her collar bone today. She will be in the hospital for 2-3 weeks for rehab 6 days a week, 3 hours a day. We see God moving and are very thankful!
