My 16 year old niece, Mackenzie was life flighted this morning at about 4 am. A spinal tap showed that she had possible viral encephalitis. The hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah has now confirmed this by MRI. She can not talk, but does follow simple commands. She also has fluid on her brain. Since this is a viral infection, they basically just have to let it run it's course, and then see what happens. She is in an immense amount of pain, the pain medications are not even helping. Please, please, please pray for a full recovery. We KNOW our God is able!!!
The top pic is just Mackenzie. Below is a family picture taken in November of 2008. From front middle...my brother David, Mackenzie, Devon, my dad holding Gracie, Dononvan, my mom, Daniel, my sister in law Jenn.
My sister in law is also DAYS away from having their 5th child, a little girl. Thanks everyone!!
