New Phases of Brittney's Healing Manifest

We are rejoicing in all things and thanking the Lord for all He is doing in Brittney's life. This past Sunday with the help of our pastor and her older brother, she walked in church. In addition to this, whenever she goes somewhere outside the house, she walks from the car to her bed with the support of mom and big brother.

Brittney will soon be taken off anti-biotics because her blood level is much improved. We are believing God that this time when she comes off antibiotics that the infection is completely gone and never to return.

Next week, Brittney will visit a new school for people with developmental disabilities. She's scheduled to start soon. In this new school, she will receive full rehabilitation services: occupational, physical and speech therapy. So, we're excited about this new phase in her healing process. Our prayer is that she will be fully alert, responsive and receptive to the new school, teachers, students and especially to rehabilitation.

On the 18th of this month, Brittney is scheduled for a two day hospital stay. On the 18th she will have her monthly blood transfusion/exchange, and on the 19th she will have surgery replacing her feeding tube for a new one. They surgery will only last a few minutes, but she'll have to be put to sleep. We're praying for complete success with both the blood exchange and the surgery.

Thank you for your continued prayers and support in faith. We are still, DAILY, seeing the healing power of God manifest in her life ... be it a look, a sound, a word... Brittney is daily showing us that God is yet alive and holds true to His promises of healing, health and long life!

-The Williams Family

    Brittney! What can I say? You continue to show me and others that there is nothing to hard for OUR God. I have faced so many challenges since this chapter of your life began. At times, I must admit they have seemed too much for me to bear. Then I see you....God's Word in flesh. You continue to remind me of God's promises to me. You are an impossibilty...yet God's opportunity for a miracle. Yes, God!

    As you enter these next couple challenges...I join your amazing family praying that God will keep you in the surgery, focus you for your rehabilitation and strengthen you...as well as your family. I praise God for you, and the blessing you have been in my own struggles.

    Your other brother....Ben

    Brittney is an amazing person in so many ways. It was a pleasure being her teacher at Shades Valley and I miss her everyday. The services she will receive at her new school will help in her recovery. Although Brittney will not be at Shades Valley, she will always be a part of the Shades Valley family. She taught me so much as a new teacher. I am truly blessed to have had the opportunity to be her teacher and case manager.

Eight Days & Counting...

Today is day 8 of Brittney being in ICU at Children's Hospital. It has been an emotional and spiritual journey for Brittney, her mom, siblings and family. We are thanking God daily for progress. Some days are slow, some days we've had setbacks, but in God we have remained faithful and hopeful of God's promises of healing for Brittney. Yesterday we learned that Brittney has two spots on her hips that may be the cause of the infection that tried to destroy her body. Right now as we type this, the doctors are drawing fluid from the spots on her hips to test for infection. If the test is positive, they will operate to remove the infection. We are pleased that her lungs and respiratory seems to be improving. Our pray focus is that her Peep Respiratory number goes down to 10. This will mean that her airways will start contracting better so that she will be able to breath on her own when they remove the ventilator. She is still in an induced coma and paralysis. So as of our knowle

A Frustrated Brittney...

The emotion of frustration... although we don't want to see her frustrated, we rejoice that she's emotional. Again, she's going against the odds even in that as the doctors told us that she would never show emotions. We're thanking God that we chose not to believe the report of man, but we believe the report of the Lord! Now on to why Brittney was frustrated... she's trying to TALK (yes... she's trying to talk) but unable to be heard because of her tracheostomy. The respiratory therapist told mom that Brittney's voice box is temporarily disconnected because of the trach, but she will be able to talk when it's removed. She was able to get four hours of sleep last night, and we're rejoicing in that as well. Today she'll be visited by the optometrists to examine her vision to see if it suffered any damaged. Although her eyes respond to light and darkness properly, she has a hard time focusing in on us when we talk to her. We're praying that she
