This is a prayer request for my former boss and his wife (Paul and Kristin Edwards)  Would you please send this out with your info you send out to the church members?

 

Thanks!

 

 

The prayer request for their 3 year old, Keaton. His Dr. thinks he has Kawasaki disease. Unfortunately they didn't catch it in time for him to get on the time sensitive medication. :( He is scheduled for an echocardiogram this Thursday. We're praying for the best possible outcome.

 

A note from Kristin:

 

I believe God led Paul to this diagnosis, as his Dr's didn't catch it. They thought he had Scarlet fever, and treated with antibiotics. It is imperative that children get on gamma globulin drugs immediately, with this disease. Because they didn't catch it in time, Keaton didn't get the time sensitive rx. Which means there is a much higher risk of heart disease, heart attack, aneurysms, seizure and other organ issues. He is scheduled for a echocardiogram this coming Thursday. We are praying and asking for prayers that somehow his heart will have been untouched by this illness and if it wasn't than God will help us through the necessary procedures and treatment. There will be a series of ECHO 's because the way this disease works is it attacks the organs down the road, long after the initial illness occurred. He is currently 3 1/2 weeks into the illness. :(
