Poor Heather has ALWAYS had health problems. First the endometriosis. **A bad case** involving water retention, surgeries, and infertility, ...Then came the allergies. To EVERYTHING. Seriously. I can't even remember what she can eat anymore. Next came the blood clots, more surgery, {which included a near death experience.} And sadly much more.
Then came the surprise. She found out she was pregnant! Which was supposed to be impossible. Early on she found out that she had a condition that only 0.01% of women contract when pregnant. It's very rare and very dangerous. The fatality rate is 80% . If that wasn't bad enough, she had other complications which put her in a very high risk pregnancy. Thankfully the baby made it through just fine. Heather started to bleed out and following her placenta, her uterus came out. Which is VERY rare. They had to race her immediately into surgery.
This was three weeks ago. She hasn't had the chance to be a Mom yet. And to top it all of, she was rushed back to the hospital last night with a clot in her brain. Which of course, the kind she has is very rare, only 92 people have this condition.
So why am I telling you all of this? Because she needs our prayers. Her daughter needs our prayers, her family need our prayers. At this point it's a waiting game to see how serious her condition is, and if she'll pull through. So PLEASE PLEASE remember her in your prayers.
That's too bad. I hope she's able to pull through so she can have the chance to be with her daughter. I know whatever happens, it will be the best for her and her family, even if that means she leaves this earthly experience behind. Hopefully, though, she has some time left on earth.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing story of your friend Heather always pulling through these things. I will pray for her at this scary time! It was fun to catch up and see your cute girls. I can't believe how big Sophie is getting. They are sooo adorable.
