Pray for Danny Plyler's Mom
1/31/22 UPDATE: Danny is back home now, and his mom is recovering and doing much better. Thank you for your prayers on her behalf.
1/27/22 UPDATE:
Danny’s mom has improved significantly and will be discharged today to go back to rehab. Danny sat and prayed and read scripture with her this morning before he left to come home.
She will see a neurosurgeon next week to determine whether or not she will need to have surgery to relieve pressure on her spine. She is hoping that if the surgery were to be successful, she might be able to return to assisted living after a brief period of post-surgery rehab.
Thank you all for your prayers on her behalf!
***********************************************
(1/25/22 PM) UPDATE:
When Danny arrived in TN, his mom was still very incoherent and confused. Through the afternoon, she became a little more lucid but still spoke of things that the family had trouble understanding, which is out of character for her.
Doctors have been able to help with the bowel issues/pain, but there has been no evidence of infection in the blood cultures they did, so the delirium is still confusing. They are planning an MRI tonight to look at her brain to determine if she has had some sort of stroke type incident as they try to figure out what has happened.
Please continue to pray fervently for her doctors to precisely determine what is going on with Danny's mom and that they will be able to treat her quickly and wisely.
--------------------------------------------------------
(1/25/22): Danny Plyler's mom was admitted to the hospital last night with extreme pain, nausea and vomiting. They are checking to see if she has appropriate blood flow in her bowels or a possible obstruction.
Danny will be traveling to Tennessee today to be with her and to give his brother a break who has been with her this entire time.
Pray that doctors will be able to quickly diagnose the problem and begin a treatment that will ease her pain and bring complete healing. Pray also for travel mercies for Danny.
