UPDATED: Prayers Needed for Elise
Elise, a six year old with Tay Sachs, is not doing well right now. Her dad posted this on her caringbridge site today:
I hate to write this, but we need to. Elise is doing really bad now. Her O2 sats are not coming up, and she is severely anemic. We can’t do much else for her now except keep her comfortable and prepare for the end. I wish we didn’t have to let her go, but it has to happen, I guess. We’ll let you know what happens as time progresses. She’s on oxygen and just had some morphine to help calm her. —John
Elise’s 7th birthday is a week from Friday. Please pray for Elise and her family. I am praying that Elise will pull through this and her family will be able to joyfully celebrate her 7th birthday. And I’m praying that Elise will be comfortable and that her family will feel God’s love, comfort and peace.
Update Tuesday night from Elise’s parents:
With an aching heart…Elise officially earned her angel wings at 7:07 p.m. She was being held by John and I as she took her last breath, surrounded by her loving family and friends. Rest in peace Sweet Angel.
I will be praying for Elsie and her family…..what a beautiful little girl.
