Father, please move that Gina may be strong enough to undergo this next procedure that will put her on the road to healing. Father give these nurses and doctors wisdom and enhance their skill supernaturally that they may do what is needed to bring this good woman back to fully restored health and functionality. In Jesus name...Amen!

Please remember to keep Gina in your daily prayers. Please pray that this life support machine can be removed from her and she can be breathing on her own. She is making wonderful steps towards this goal. Please pray that the Lord Jesus would have mercy on her and help her to breathe on her own. Please also pray for the wisdom of the doctors and nurses that are in place at this current time. Please pray for her comfort, strength and her own fight. Please let her know that there are so many people her who love her and need her as well. I thank everyone for praying and continuing to pray. I will not give up on praying for her. I am like the inopportune friend who continued to knock. My friend is helpless right now but through Jesus she is made strong and I pray that he would heal her and thanks again for praying for her.

Please continue to be in prayer for Gina. When I went to visit her yesterday it was, I believe, her best day yet regarding her oxygen. Please pray that she can keep moving forward. She is stable but I want her to move forward so this machine can come off of her. I feel she is so close because the level was sooooo good yesterday. Please pray for this. Also, please continue to pray for her comfort, calm, and to be peaceful during this time. Pray that the Lord just gently gives her calm that she needs. This must be scary for her as well. Also, please pray that the Lord will give these doctors and nurses HIS wisdom and compassion towards Gina. They need the wisdom of the Lord whether they are aware of it or not. I so want my friend to get better. Please just continue to pray and thanks to everyone who is continuing to pray for her.

Just please continue to be in prayer for Gina. I went to visit her yesterday and her numbers statistically were better than the day before. Both myself and another one of her friends who was at the hospital and is a critical care nurse in another hospital felt that she seemed better than even the numbers indicated. No questions she is still sick but I feel she is pulling through this and I would love for you to please pray for her to continue to get stronger. Please pray that she would remain calm, and restful and yet still have fight to come out of this. It feels as if we are close to finally (and all the numbers are low which is good) having this machine come off of her. Please pray that this happens. Also, please pray she continues to make progress and doesn't backtrack. Please ask the Lord to gently whisper to her heart (she is a Christian) that people her love her very much and want her here with us. Also, and very important please pray for the doctors and nurses that they would have the Lord's wisdom when dealing with Gina's medical issues. They need his wisdom whether they are aware of it or not. Please also pray for compassion from these doctors and nurses.
Thanks to all who are praying, have been praying and please continue to do so.
thank you.

A special thank you to whomever Robert is. He sent me an email the other day that was uplifting. I truly appreciate the prayers and the encouragement. Thank you and keep praying for my friend, Gina.

Please everyone reading this be in prayer for Gina right now. They will be needing to perform
A couple of common procedures on her. While they are common there are always risks so please pray
For Gina as well as these doctors and nurses so that their hand will be guided. Pray for her comfort and strength and please pray that these procedures will help her to come off of this machine so she is breathing on her own. We all love and want her go get better.
Thank you

Hi:
Again, I come to everyone asking to please remember Gina in prayer. They performed a few common procedures on her yesterday. It seems to have gone well as we have not been otherwise. Also, please pray that she continue to become stronger as each day passes. I will not ever give up praying for her. The doctors feel (of course they can't guarantee) that she can pull through this even if in baby steps. I pray to the Lord Jesus that he would just lay his hands on her and heal her body. Help her lungs to breathe. We are moving in the right direction. I pray to the Lord Jesus for no set backs. I pray that in this New year that we could move forward. Whatever is to follow regarding respiratory rehab and all of the other stuff we can all help Gina through it - we all just want to see her off of this machine and breathing on her own. Please keep praying for wisdom for these doctors as well as prayer that all of the medical procedures that are performed would serve only to benefit Gina and help her to grow stronger. Please pray that the Lord would whisper to her soul that there are so many people here that love her and want to hear her voice again and want to see the Gina we all know and love. She is so close to coming off of this machine (in a good way) and I pray and ask you to agree with me in prayer that we will continue to make good progress within the next few days and she can be off of this machine breathing on her own.
I also want to ask for prayer for myself. I know the Lord has everything under control but I have to admit that there are days (today, for me, is one of them) where it is tougher than others seeing your friend like this. I know that there are so many positive things to be thankful for and I am so grateful the progress that has been made.
I am also so very grateful for all of the lessons that have been learned in this short time. I am not saying that God allows this type of stuff to happen to teach us a lesson but I know just within myself that the Lord has taught me so much about myself and I thank him for that and pray that I could move forward with what I've learned through this.
Again, just please remember to keep Gina in your daily prayers. I am thankful and I appreciate everyone who is continuing to pray for her.
Also, when I was at the hospital yesterday there was a family outside in the waiting room. They were, obviously, upset. I don't know what their relationship to The Lord Jesus is but I do know that the woman that they were there to see is named Mary Duff so I would ask that you would please pray for this family and for Mary Duff whatever her situation is... I don't know. She might be at a point of not making it - again, I don't know but the family is grieving for their loved one in the hospital and I thought I would ask for prayer for them.

1/2/2011
Hi: I am just coming and asking for continual prayer for my friend Gina. The common procedures that were done went well and all thanks and praise to the Lord for that and many thanks to every believer on this page who is praying for Gina. With that being said she is very close to coming off of this machine but it feels like it is so far away. Please pray that the Lord would keep Gina calm and strong. Please also pray that the Lord would continue to give wisdom and compassion to these doctors and nurses. Please also pray that these medications that are being used would only be set to accomplish what they need to do... no more no less. Please pray that the Lord would have mercy on Gina's lungs and help her to breathe by laying his hands upon her.
With all of that being said I also would pray that the Lord would help her regarding that of infections and fevers. She has been doing good oxygen/saturation wise but she has been running fevers and they are treating her as if she has pneumonia as well. They aren't sure but they are using these types of meds to help her. Please pray that the Lord would handle this and heal her. I am not a nurse or doctor or even medically smart in my own opinion. I don't know all of the fancy terms but the Lord Jesus knows the body. He created the body and I pray that you would all continue to pray that the Lord would heal and allow her to breathe again on her own. The doctors do feel she will pull through this though they can not or will not ever guarantee that but I do ask that people who love the Lord and are believers in Christ Jesus would just join with me in prayer to ask the Lord to heal her and bring restoration to her body. Thank you all for the prayers.

Father, please bring healing to Gina's lungs that she may breathe on her own. In your kindness give wisdom to these doctors that they may know what to do to stop the fevers and infections she is experiencing. In your love for her comfort Gina and strengthen her that she may continue to fight her way back to full health while holding on tightly to your hand. In Jesus name...Amen!

Please continue praying for Gina. They had to increase her oxygen just a little bit yesterday which I am not surprised by because, as I mentioned earlier, she has been having a few fevers and small infections. Even though it was just increased a small bit it seems to me like it was enormous. Please pray that the Lord will heal her fevers and whatever else ails her. As I said before I am not a medical professional so I don't know all the fancy words to pray. I don't believe the Lord is looking for fancy words as there are no magic words to pray but he DOES know how to heal the body and what needs to be done so I pray that the Lord will heal her fevers and whatever needs to be done. Please always pray for these doctors that are in place here as well as the nurses will have wisdom and compassion for Gina's medical situation. As I mentioned before I won't ever stop praying for her healthy return to us and I thank you all so very much for praying along with me.
