Please pray for my niece, Courtney (my namesake). She delivered her baby by c-section and everything was fine until yesterday. She started having intense headaches and neckaches. She also was seeing spots for awhile. She went to the dr. today and he thought they were spinal headaches so he tried an epidural blood patch 2x. It didn't give her any relief so they sent her home telling her it was probably a pulled muscle in her neck. She's been taking pain meds and nothing has helped the pain. Her mom (my sister) is very worried and is trying to encourage her to go get a ct scan. Please pray for her relief from pain and that things don't get worse. My sister is worried about her having a stroke. Thank you all for your prayers. Our family seems to have gone from one health related problem to another in the past two months!

Courtney, I'm praying that this will resolve, I am also praying that the right course of action will be undertaken..the worry of a stroke can be a real one after birth as rare as it might be.

Asking St. Gerard and the healing angel Raphael to intercede for her... how hard, especially with a new little one.

This sounds terribly frightening, Courtney! I'm adding my prayers to St. Gerard for your niece and the sweet baby!

Thank you all for your prayers. My niece had a massage yesterday and that helped a great deal. She's going back for another on Monday. Hopefully this will take care of it and it's nothing serious. Thank you again! Your prayers have definitely made a difference!
