| Monday was an up and then down day for Missy Oshoway.
It will be a long night, as her condition is serious.
After showing improvement and breathing on her own, pulling out her ventilator, she quit breathing yesterday and had to be put back on the ventilator.
She is suffering from head trauma received in a car accident Friday, now a patient at St. Marys Hospital in Huntington in their trauma unit.
Monday evening she appeared to take a turn for the worse, having to be placed in surgery because of building pressure around her brain. She was put on a pressure monitor, which indicates the pressure has dropped.
A spokesperson said they don't know why she has gone down hill so drastically.
The Ohshoways are asking for prayer, saying that prayer is the only thing anyone can
do right now.
- "Sue and John ask that everyone
continue to pray for Melissa's recovery. They are
very grateful for the prayers that are given in
behalf of their daughter. Sue was so
appreciative of the prayer chains
from all over the country. Please continue to write some of the e-mails
that you receive from the prayer chains for
Melissa, if you have time. Thank you." J. P.
- "I know we just have to keep the faith and keep these prayers
going. We may need to try to ask folks commit to praying for Melissa by the
hour." - J.B.
- "Almighty God, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, we humbly ask for the divine to come down and touch Missy, allowing her to be restored to live this life as your servant. We pray now for a merciful healing." - Daytona, Florida
