Holly, our 14 year old daughter, had an extensive hip surgery Thursday morning. The surgery was very long but went well. Please continue to pray to God for her pain control, continued good vitals, low anxiety, no need for another needle, and the patience and perseverance to learn to do what she needs to do from PT, OT, and Respiratory in order to move forward in her recovery. She has hardly moved on her own yet. She also has a rare complication. During surgery a nerve in her arm was pinched and now she has VERY little control of her right arm and hand. We’re told that it should resolve on its own within a few days to a few weeks. This means she cannot use crutches anymore to be non weight bearing on her right leg. She feels paralyzed and is understandably quite frustrated. She asked me, “Why Mom, when I am so covered in prayer, did this happen to my arm?” I don’t know what to say. Thanks!
