All of the adrenaline of what Emily has endured the past two weeks has worn off, and the past few days have been extremely difficult for her. Being away from her kids for so long, to being back home and not able to do anything, to her not being in her own home and able to do simple task. Not only that, but also reflecting on the trauma she endured from traveling with Covid restrictions, the actual operation, and more... It’s all been a lot for her to handle. 

As most of you know, the AVM was extensive. It was wrapped tightly around her Ulnar nerve causing lack of blood flow to vital parts in her hand, now resulting in loss of mobility in her hand and fingers post surgery. On top of that, the nerve pain that followed the operation is the biggest valley for Emily right now. At this point, Doctors have said that the long term prognosis would be hopefully around Christmas for some gain of mobility back. However, the nerve damage that has debilitated her, has an unknown recovery time.

Please continue to pray for pain management, helping hands, and for there to be healing mentally + physically.
