Julie’s Story

Site created on May 29, 2018

Julie is a 43 year old wife, mother, and grandmother. She is currently in the intensive care unit of the University of Vermont Health Center in Burlington,VT for a heart bypass and valve replacement. There were a few complications since the surgery due to her pre existing conditions that have caused Julie to become critical. We are asking all those far and wide to pray for Julie's recovery.

Newest Update

Journal entry by Ellen StMary

Sorry everyone for not updating sooner but Julie has been sick a lot lately and not sleeping at night, so I just have not got a chance. But as I sit here at dialysis I am trying to catch up. Julie has been coughing a lot and we went Thursday for a chest xray and it turns out she has pneumonia still in her right lung. 😞 also the site that they took the vein from for her bi -pass , is also infected. With 2 kinds of antibiotics going on she is very sick to her stomach most of the time. 😢 now she is very low on blood again so it looks like 2 more blood infusions next week. To top it off it's Emma's big party today and that's where she wants to be..not here.  So if you don't see another update for a couple more days you all will know we are spending quality time at the hospital and dialysis unit! 🙈🙈❤
