Toxic Metabolic Encephalitis...

Paula called this morning with a heavy heart. Mom Lyons isn't responding as they had hoped after being off of sedatives for over a week. Paula is wondering if she has Toxic Metabolic Encephalitis from over sedation. No, that doesn't necessarily mean the hospital staff gave her too much medication... It could just be that her body isn't metabolizing the medication out of her system as quickly as other patients. Paula and her sister Michelle both have had similar reactions to medication in the past.

Please continue to pray for a miracle. Pray they are able to meet with the doctors that are involved in Mom's case and get accurate and up to date idea of what is going on & what they can expect... That has been one of the most frustrating thing about the whole situation.

Paula is attempting to work and keep her 2 young children on as normal of a schedule as possible. The kids are REALLY missing their Grandma and ask daily when she is coming home...

Please keep this family I love so much in your prayers...
