Thursday's update on Sarah. . .

Sarah went home again yesterday, but after only a few hours, her symptoms returned with a vengence, and she headed back to the hospital. Here's the email that her husband, Derek, sent out today:

Well it's day 9 of Sarah's menengitis experience. Round 3. And I know she's
going for the TKO! Satan must really not want Sarah and Elizabeth to go to
Albania. Sarah came back to the Edmond E.R. Last night after only a few hours
after leaving. She started having back pain and bad headaches the minute we
arrived at home. Sarah started having numbness in her hands and legs again.
They did blood work and a C.T. Scan, and again they all came back normal. We
moved back into the main hospital around 11:30. Room # 312. I am actually
thinking about ordering one of these chair/cots for our house (not!). They will
do a M.R.I. Some time today. We know that menengitis symptoms usually last 10
days, and are greatful that Sarah has had a day here and there, where she has
felt well enough to go home. Sarah is awake and eating breakfast. She still
has that old headache. Pray for Sarah's complete healing and rest. We
love all ya'll. :) Derek


Thank you to all of you who are praying for Sarah. Please don't stop as this is a scary road to walk.
