Update On Jackie

A miracle took place last night. Things were looking very dark for Jackie and they were talking about doing emergency surgery. However, they decided to do another procedure to see if they could undo the kink in her intestines without having to open her up. When they went to do the procedure, the kink was gone!! Praise the Lord. Prayer changes things!!!!

After more tests, they have determined that she has Acute Pancreatitis. If you click on that, it takes you to the wikipedia findings, which is in a nutshell what pancreatitis is. Click here to get a more indepth understanding of it.

It can be hereditary, so they are testing her parents, Josh and Beth. They have three other children and right now we don't know if they'll need to be tested or not.

The doctors are also checking Jackie for Goltz. Why, we're not really sure. I don't know if there is a connection between Goltz and Pancreatitis or if they saw something suspicious and just want to check her out. But please be in prayer about this as well.

Please continue to pray for Jackie and her parents. And also the doctors to receive wisdom in her case.
