Hello All! We never imagined we would be here...in this place, sending out "posts" on our sweet little angel, Jenna. But here we are and here goes...
Luke and Missy post - friends and family this post will be fast and furious. short and sweet....we have a very sick little 4 (almost 5) year old. We are talking very sick. We are in the intesive care unit of ciny childrens, one of the premier childrens hospitals in the world. Even here, they are saying our little girl is severely sick. Ok now you have a little pespective on the situation. So what's up. Jenna developed a fever, then a high fever, then vomitting...a visit to the ER in Somerset, admission to the hospital, developed diarrhea (a lot) -- really really sick, blood work changed, helicopter ride to Cincinnati (boy, that was surreal). We arrived in ICU, and it felt like a scene out of "ER". 3 Docs, 3 RNs, several techs, and the news she was in "septic shock". Severe septic shock...and the work began. And for Luke and I, another BIG roller coaster ride. Jenna has fought hard and continues to fight hard. The infection (group A strep) may well be gone due to multiple antibiotics, but now working on the overwhelming reaction from the body. She is on a ventilator and many meds and just fighting for her life. So, what we need from you is your prayers for healing for jenna, strength for jenna and for us. We don't know why Jenna/our family has been asked to walk this walk, but with God's grace we will do our best.
We love all of you. Do not despair...HOPE, FAITH, TRUST. God is GOOD!

Just wanted to let you know we are keeping you in our prayers. Tessa makes sure of it before every meal, at naptime and bedtime by telling everyone to "pray for my friend Jenna who is sick. We don't know why she's sick but she needs to feel better." I know that God hears all our prayers but sometimes I think the little children have a quicker connection :) Please let us know if there is anything we can do.
