Brittney Walked Today!

For the past couple of weeks we've seen Brittney's personality unfold before our very eyes. Some of her mannerisms have returned and she's been looking more like "herself" than ever before.

In addition to this, she's been moving her limbs more and sometimes making motions with her legs as if she's running. Mom often tells her to "pick up your bed and walk" and with that, we saw this come to pass today.

With the help of mom and big brother, Brittney walked across the room. This was her very first steps in seven months. Their intention was just to stand her on her feet to help her feel what it's like to stand on her feet, but as soon as she stood up, she began to take steps.

We are all rejoicing as we know that this is only the beginning. As auntie always say, "If she can do it once, that means she can do it again." We are looking forward to more of what God manifests in moments, days, and weeks to come!

If you're believing God for anything... hold fast to your faith. Don't give up on God 'cause He won't give up on you. Stay in faith and never let go of the promises.

Special Prayer for Brittney

We continue to lift Brittney and her family in prayer. We are praying diligently for strength and use of her legs and arms. We go before the Lord and ask the infection totally and finally be removed from her system. This is God's temple and we shout in agreement that this infection should not dwell within her. We pray that Brittney feel the Holy Spirit surround her with peace and joy. We pray for her family too... let them know dear Lord we are relentless in praying healing over Brittney. We praise you God for continuing to knit those beautiful brain cells together. We Praise you for the progress that we have heard and seen. Brittney is your testimony and witness to prayer and healing. We continue to thank and praise you!

Brittney is Well

It's been a while since our last post, but we want you to know that Brittney is well. Each day she does something new and different as a sign from God that He's manifesting healing in her body each day. Whether it's a word, a movement or just a look in her eyes.

Right now she's no longer speaking in complete sentences, yet she calls the names of family members, "Ma, Tee, Erin, Brandon and D." She's moving her limbs with ease (especially her right arm with was the arm that had the most infection).

She still receives antibiotics three times a day via IV. Her monthly hospital visits for blood transfusions have been reduced from a 2-3 day visit to now only one day for a few hours.

We're expecting great results with her next visit with infectious disease doctors and hopefully, the infection is all gone and they'll stop the antibiotics altogether.

Right now, she's no longer in rehabilitation. However, we're expecting to find a therapist soon that will be able to come to the home to help her with rehabilitation.

She's still very present and aware of her surroundings. And we rejoice for that!

What we're praying for:


Our biggest prayer request is that she can be mobile -- walking and doing more for herself. That will help in transporting her back and forth to doctors visits and to church.

We're praying that the infection is completely gone and never to return.

We're praying that God sends the professional help she needs to get to the next point in her healing process.

Thank you so much for your continued prayer support. One of her friends posted on her Facebook page that she had dreams of Brittney walking and talking. We know this will happen. Keep the faith with us. Keep strong and don't give up on God (because God Himself has not given up). Hallelujah!
