MB-Friends~ I would like to ask for thoughts & prayer for a very good friend of mine's daughter.
His daughter delivered a baby girl two weeks ago by c-section. However, she started having complications and has been hemorrhageing which has resulted in two additional surgeries and 7 blood transfusions [that I know of]. She is fighting hard as I understand and trying to be light in spirit, but she is in need of prayers.
If you could remember her and her family, my friend would be very grateful.
Fondly, K.

Thank you ladies. I want to be a friend to him, and asking for thoughts and prayers is all I can do for him right now. Just know that he is a good/caring person and well deserving of your thoughts.
I did talk to him this evening, and it sounds like maybe they have gotten her under control with the last surgery and hopefully she can start recovering.
He remains proud of her strength.
Thank you for thinking of both of them, K.

Sending my thoughts and prayers too, K!
Hope everything goes well, and it will! (My boss told me a few weeks ago his wife had the same issue, with their 2nd child. - And everything ended well!)

Thank you both and all again.
I too believe she will be okay, but it was a roller coaster of emotions for many hours for them.
Thank you all for the thoughts and prayers.

K, She's in my prayers too. This happened to a friend of mine. Went home after a C section and kept bleeding. docs said it was nothing, but she went to ER and almost died. They apparently cut too much, or hit something and didn't know it. They can do so much these days. I remember it was very difficult for her H to deal with a new baby by himself, and wonder if his wife would make it. And then, when she did come home, she was so weak for a while. So, it will likely be a long recovery.

Thanks Newly,
That sounds pretty much like what has happened in this case.
In total, she had 12 transfusions, so that gives us a glimpse of how much blood she had lost.
I imagine she will be weak for awhile, but I'm sure her and her family will deal with that, with greatful hearts knowing that they still have her.
Thank you all.

While Karona is probably going to kill me for this; <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> I want all of you to know that she is speaking of my DD20 on this thread. Yes, DD went through large amounts of blood and nearly bled out (twice); however she is doing much better now - out of ICU and recovering nicely. Ultimately; the radiologist located and immobolized the damaged artery using a procedure called arterial-embolization. After this procedure; there was no more blood loss and within 2 hours her blood count began to rapidly improve. All vitals are now in the "normal" stage and she just needs time to recover now.
Now it's my turn to ask all of you to return the favor to K and her beautiful DD(15). A few years ago, K's DD was diagnosed with a brain tumor which resulted in additional health complications. K's DD had her annual MRI last Saturday and they get the results today. As you can imagine - it's an anxious time for Karona. (Who by the way is one of the most inspirational and beautiful people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting & becoming friends with. She has impacted my life!) So please redirect your thoughts and prayers to K and her awesome daughter for a clean report on that MRI.
Thank you once again! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Thank you IMO~ Thoughts and prayers are so needed during these time in life.
And to my Bud FR~
You were pretty generous up there, and I thank you for the extremely kind words. You also have made an impact in my life as well!
I'm very pleased to say that my brave DD's report came back clear today. It's been 4 years, and while I'm supposed to remain faithful, it's hard for the what if's to not sneak in and take over my mind. I'm a zombie this afternoon. My body has let go of all the stress.
Thank you FR for asking for k. I appreciate you remembering her.

Thanks all.
My heart is so much lighter since yesterday. This time of the year is especially hard for me.
I appreciate everyones thoughts, prayers, and kind words.
Oh Newly, I bet those babies are so tiny and beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
LT~ Thank you! However, you should be included in the "inspirational and beautiful" You remain so strong and encouraging. You have had you own battles, and you are always so kind to everyone here.
Hope all is well with everyone. Thank you ALL for your genuine caring thoughts.
