My lastest info is that Moriah may have to be put back on
the ventilator. We will be traveling their tomorrow and I
hope to have more info on Sunday. Thank you for your prayers.
Heartseeker
UPDATE 4-13
I just talked to Cheryl. She is asking that we pray for
Moriah's lungs. It seems that the doctors have had to turn
the c-pap up from 6 to 10. That is as high as they can go.
The next alternative would be to put the breathing tubes
back in, and Cheryl is really praying that Moriah's lungs
will be strengthened and she will be able to breathe on her
own. Also, she is requesting prayer for growth for Moriah.
At the present time, she is on an I.V. in case they would
need to put the tubes back, they don't want her to have a
full tummy. We are praying that she wil breathe on her own
and get back on formula. Thanks to everyone who is continuing
to hold her up in prayer... It means so much to be able to
count on one another. We know Lord, that ALL things are
possible through you, so Father, We trust you and know that
You Are God and these children are in Your hands and we
thank You and Praise You for it!!!
UPDATE 4-12
Moriah is still doing good. Her mom is requesting that
we pray for her to not have to use the c-pap. It is a
device that forces air into her lungs to keep them expanded.
She would like for her to be able to come off of that. Also
pray for her strength, she has been through a lot this
week. Mom and Dad are doing fine and extend their heartfelt
gratitude for all the prayers that are going out for the
children and the parents. Again, much thanks goes out to
the doctors as they are very encouraging and attentive to
all of Moriah's needs. Most of all, Thank You Heavenly
Father for Your Grace!!
UPDATE 4-11 4:45 PM
I have a PRAISE REPORT for MORIAH!!! She is OFF THE
BREATHING TUBES!! PRAISE GOD, PRAISE GOD. She is
completely BREATHING ON HER OWN!!!! Cheryl said she
looks very content! I am so happy that she is doing
great. What a little miracle! Thank You Lord!! One
other thing that I had reported earlier about her aorta,
I wasn't sure what they had to do during surgery but a
friend just told me that all the had to do was
straighten it out, I believe they had originally
thought that it was worse than that. God heals!!
Lord, we are so thankful for your touch on
these children! Praise Your Holy Name Father
UPDATE 4-11
I talked to Cheryl and Moriah is doing excellent. Her
heart rate is around 100. Her blood pressure is good
and her skin is looking very good. The doctor will be
coming in this afternoon to remove her breathing tubes.
Please pray that there will be no complications. Her
vocal cords are so small that they don't want this to
be a concern when they take her off. We also need to
keep her in prayer as far as her lungs and her weight.
She has lost a little weight and we are praying for
that to come right back and be thriving...Amen.. Also,
the doctors at this hospital are very willing to work
with her to address her needs. They will be having her
take physical therapy to increase her abilty to suck.
They will have her come back in about 4 months to 'fix
her bottom." Praise God for this miracle!! It is also
giving Cheryl an opportunity to witness and pray with
other parents. Let's pray that the Lord will place her
where their is a need and she will be able to give
the hope and encouragement of the Lord to others. GOD,
YOU ARE AWESOME!! Thank you Lord!!
UPDATE 4-9
I just talked to Cheryl and she said Moriah is doing
very well. Please continue to pray for her lungs, she
might have a little pnuemonia in he left lung. They
will be trying to take her off life support tomorrow
which is a lot sooner than Cheryl expected. Praise
God!! Cheryl is requesting that we pray that God
will make her completely whole in Jesus Name.
UPDATE 4-8 10 AM
More good news!! I just talked to Moriah's Grandmother
and Moriah is doing very good. Praise God!! Cheryl told
her that her color looks better than yesterday and she
had a very peaceful night's sleep. We need to continue
to keep her covered in prayer concerning her lungs as
this is always a concern after surgery. Moriah will be
staying at University of Virginia as opposed to coming
back to King's Daughters. They will be addressing more
of her needs and I will keep you posted. Thanks goes
out to everyone who is joining with us in prayer. It
makes a difference!!! I am so thankful to the Lord
for his loving care over Moriah. He truly is carrying
her through this!! Praise You Father!!! Julie.
UPDATE 4-7 10 pm
Moriah is still doing well. God has done a great work in
her life. Continue to pray, she has a distance to go and
we know God will carry her through if we remain faithful
in intercession for her. Heartseeker
NEW UPDATE 4-7 12pm
GREAT NEWS!!!!!
I just talked to another intercessor who is in touch
with Cheryl's mom. Moriah just came out of surgery
and she is doing great!!!!!!!!! They were able to
do EVERYTHING that they wanted to do. They fixed
something with her aorta and patched her heart.
PRAISE GOD, PRAISE GOD, PRAISE GOD. This is truly
a miracle!!! The only concern now is a little early
pneumonia in her left lung. This operation is one
of the firsts in these babies. I know that unwavering
faith has released God's miraculous healing power in
her life. I am so excited. He has brought her through
this all the way! Glory to the Father. Thank you for
praying with me. I will give you a later update as I
get it.
Another update I just talked to Cheryl from the hospital.
She said that what was supposed to be a 3 hour surgery
only took 1 1/2 hours. They repaired the hole in her
heart and repaired another small hole. They fixed her
aorta and everything went great. They still have a
little concern about her left lung. So lets keep that
in prayer. They had some people come in yesterday and
take pictures. Moriah"s story will be published in the
Medical Books. It is so awesome. Cheryl and her husband
want to thank everyone that is praying with them and
they send a "heartfelt" thanks from Moriah Too!! They
are very happy with the doctors at University of Virginia
Hospital. They are extremely positive and compassionate.
She said they are already talking about how some
other smaller problems can be corrected. Anyone who
reads about this please know that God's hand has
brought this family through all of this. Always have
unwavering faith in God and CLAIM His Promises without
doubt. I have seen what faith in God can do through
Moriah, never give up...Just Believe!!
UPDATE ON MORIAH 4-6 8PM
Moriah will be having open heart surgery tomorrow
to fix the hole in her heart. I just talked to
Cheryl's mother again. Cheryl called from the
hospital and said that they will be taking Moriah
down to surgery at 6:30 a.m. She will not know
anything until about 12:30. The immediate concern
for the surgery is for her breathing tubes because
she is so small. She is about 5 lbs. now. She is
asking that we keep her in prayer especially
during that time and throughout the day. Please
pray that God directs the hands and minds of the
surgeon's and everyone involved that is taking
care of her. She is a miracle already and I pray
that many people will witness God's glory through
her. I am also asking that the family be kept in
prayer during this time. My heartfelt thanks goes
out to all of you for joining us in prayer.
