Ally's Monday Update

Thank you so much for all of the prayers and support you all have shown to the De Mont family.  They have been overwhelmed with the amount of people that have stepped up and made dinners, gave gas cards and most of all prayed for them and their sweet girl.  I was able to talk with Lisa a little bit today and get an update.
They didn't do the MRI today because the doctors wanted to wait a few more days for the steroids to continue to work.  So the MRI will be Wednesday or later in the week.  They did another EEG today and are waiting for the results back.  I will keep you posted as I hear.  The doctors are adjusting her seizure medications and weaning her off of one so the loopy feeling she has been experiencing has stopped.  She has had a few seizures in the past couple of days but they said those should slow down a bit.  Her personality is coming back even more since the last time I wrote so that has been an encouragement to them.  All of the tests she has taken this far have all been sent to the Mayo Clinic.

Please continue to pray that the Lord would guide the doctors and help them figure out what is going on with little Ally. Pray for complete healing!!!
Pray that the MRI would show no signs of swelling.
Pray that Ally would get the rest she needs and the sleep at night so that her and whoever is with her can sleep.
Pray that Joe and Lisa get the rest that they need both physically and emotionally as this is hard on all of them.
Pray for safe travels as they are traveling several times a day from Modesto to Oakland and back

As Joe has had to take a leave of absence from work to be with Ally, we are trying to help them out with all the additional expenses that come to them as well as providing meals and lunches when needed. If you would like to help you can contact me Heather Sutton at heathrriis@sbcglobal.net.

If you would like to send an encouraging note or a verse please do so in the comments below and they will get it. Or you can send them to the church and we will make sure they get them.

As I know Joe and Lisa are so blessed by every ones concern, support and prayers. I started this blog so that they didn't have to repeat themselves with updates to each person. We all know that they both would continue to do that, but to keep them from more exhaustion I will be updating this as I get information. If you would like to pass it on to others that would be fantastic.

Thank you so much!!!
God Bless
