Do you have time to lend a prayer??

A local mother in my area needs prayers! She grew up on my street and is a year to so younger than me. She is a teacher at the local high school and has 4 beautiful daughters. She is struggling to live at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. She and her husband Dave have 4 beautiful daughters Camryn, Brynlee, Aubrey & Courtney.  Kristi suffered serious complications after giving birth that have caused her Heart and Lungs to fail. She is currently at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania on a heart and lung bypass machine. The road ahead is a long one that will have Kristi hospitalized for the next several months. First and foremost the family needs prayers for Kristi's continued improvement, but we would also like to help them financially so in the short term we can help Dave get hotel rooms near the hospital, cover meals, formula & diapers for the family etc. as well as be ready to help with the long term needs as they arise. The family has also asked for blood and/or plasma donations to HUP. Kristi has received blood transfusions and the family feels this is a way they can pay back the hospital for the tremendous care they are giving Kristi. For updates on Kristi's condition please visit www.carepages.com/carepages/kristihertzog

This morning she will be getting surgery for an ECMO machine that will help her lungs along. An ECMO is similar to a heart/lung machine. Please keep Kristi, her husband Dave and their daughters in your prayers! Please contact as many prayer warriors as you can and get the prayers out there! This family need their wife and mother back!
