Praying hard, Stephanie. My husband suffered a traumatic brain injury when he was 18, so this is especially close to my heart.

He made it through last night. In the next 2 days the swelling will (clinically speaking) maximize. He is unresponsive except to quit a bit of pain of pressing his finger with a pencil. Please get everyone to pray for his life. All we can do is pray, pray, and wait to see if he responds.
Thank you so much!
Blessings,
Stephanie Ansberry

I'm back from the hospital for the evening. Peter is "storming". If he doesn't stop soon, they will paralyze him. Being paralyzed temporarily has to be better than seeing my son's blood pressure hit over 250 and very elated heart rate and the severe shaking. I literally couldn't handle it any longer. I am taking a bath, eating, and trying to prepare myself for God' Will. Hopefully and prayerfully, I want Peter to stay with us much longer.
Thank you for all your support and prayers.
Stephanie

Stephanie,
You and Peter haven't left my thoughts and prayers today. I am grateful for the updates and pray that you will continue to keep us posted as you are able.

Focus on the right now: putting one foot in front of the other. Know that you can trust us to faithfully continue praying for you and for Peter.

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy!

I have been and continue to pray, Stephanie!!   

We prayed a novena to Blessed John Licci, Patron of head injuries for a friend and I am praying to him for your son!

Blessed John Licci (Giovanni Liccio)
Feast day: November 14
(Patron of Head Injuries)


Saint's Prayer
Loving God, you made Blessed John illustrious by a complete self-denial and the utmost zeal for charity that he might reveal the mystery of your love to the poor. By following his example may we seek to please you and aid our brothers and sisters in Christ. Blessed John Licci, healer and friend to the community, we beseech you to pray for these wounds to mend. Restore to health this soul who has so much to give to the world. By the grace of the Lord, pray for the restoration of this injury and steady the doctor's hand through the healing process. With God's blessing, we implore your help.** We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
Blessed John, pray for us!

We will hold you up in prayer. Continuing to pray fervently as I go to bed tonight.
