Jodi’s Story

Site created on July 19, 2018

On  Sunday,  July 15th at 7:54 my beautiful sister Jodi suffered a Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection.  (SCAD).  I brought her to St. John ’s hospital and she was transferred to St. Joes where they performed a procedure to put in three stints.  We were told all was good and she would be home on Tuesday.  During the night, she suffered a couple of blood clots and was transferred to The University of MN Medical Center for Level 1 Critical Care.  Many ups and downs but we're holding on to the ups, the positives.  Those positives are:  she is young and strong with no serious underlying medical issues, she has no risk factors for heart disease, she is opening her eyes and following commands so they are sure there is no brain damage.   Most importantly, she has a strong faith in God.  He is going to give us a miracle of a full recovery.  We have had such a wonderful outpouring of love and support.  THANK YOU!  I will keep you updated as often as I can.    Please post encouraging words and please, please, take a moment right now and say a prayer....
