Prayers for Vitoria

I ask all our friends around the world that have followed with caring the story of our precious little girl Vitoria that pray for her. On thursday at 5 am she woke up crying a lot and after some time we realized she was cyanotic (face and hands were getting purple). We took her to hospital and an urinary infection was seen. She was hospitalized but they could not puncture a venous access to give her medications even after several attempts.

On evening we realized she was getting really bad and so pediatricians have found that she was in a septic shock. Blood flow was focused to vital organs greatly reducing the peripheral circulation and impeding the puncture of a venous access. She went to ICU in a very serious condition and we went through hours of great anxiety and prayer that something could be done for her.

They called a surgeon to make a central catheter and finally she could then receive serum and antibiotics. They found that the bacteria also reached the lungs causing pneumonia in only a few hours.

She had to be intubated and sedated and receiving multiple medications. Thank God the pneumonia is already regressing and she had an amazing surprisingly response in just 24 hours of antibiotics - the answer usually comes only after 48 hours of treatment. Now her condition is stable, but she is still so impaired and needing all possible support until her body can fight off infection.

We talked to her saying how much we love her and would like to keep on taking care of her here on earth, and prayed God how much we love her and want so much that she can live and spend more unforgetable days with us. She belongs to Him and He is in control of her life.

She is in an very good hospital in a room were we can spend 24 hours a day with her.
It's been very painful to see her so weak since three days ago she was at home so well.

We remain in constant prayer.

  2. Hi I'm from Brazil and I'm following the story d eVitória only a week ago. And today, the Abir's blog had this news. But since I know that you are confident in God is unnecessary to say a few things. Just say I'm in the same thought that you and asking in faith mems. God bless you!
