About 12 hours ago Sage took a dramatic downturn. At this point, we are—we must—hope and pray for a miracle. Sophie led us in a prayer circle last night and Sage received the Sacrament of the Sick from the hospital's priest. Mark is traveling from Germany—please pray as well for his safe journey.
Sophie is a rock; she asks all of you to redouble your efforts and your prayers. We need a miracle.
Sage is surrounded by the love of her family; we know that you are here with us and we ask you to stay.
God bless.
We hold Sage, you, and your family in our hearts and minds Sophie.

Dearest Sage,
ReplyDeleteWe have not met in person yet your mom has shared how much she loves you with me and stories about you. I know that you are the breath of God and the breath of God is breathing you...I know that the apperances are difficult for those around you to watch and experience because of the great love they have for and about you. I know what is happening on a Spiritual level is greater than we know from the naked eye. Yet, you know. You know at a cellular level. I see great healing and health and Wholeness about you. I see your dad arriving with ease and grace.
From the heart your mother speaks the words of love to you from all that surround you with loving and positive thoughts. She is the voice of Spirit speaking to you. The voice of love loving you so perfectly and purely. I send you great love and joy. And when you are up and around, I want to meet you in person.
Peace and blessings dear one.
Love,
Bea

Hello to Sage's Family and Friends~ I just read the entire blog...This story is strangely familiar to my own personal story. I'm going to share a brief version as a means of encouragement to y'all and to know there is so much hope for Sage.
ReplyDeleteI'm a healthy person who simply didn't wake up one morning. I had a dental procedure the day before but it wasn't anything unusual and certainly didn't cause any red flags. I simply didn't wake up.
I was hospitalized on complete life support for a few weeks. No one knew what to do. Infectious disease doctors hadn't seen anything like it. After a few weeks of life support, my kidneys and other organs began to fail. There was no hope. The family had to make a decision about continuing support. In the midst of this decision, things began to improve.
After I awoke, I was transferred to a rehab facility, where I worked to regain strength to walk and take care of myself again.
The doctors here in Grand Rapids, Michigan have told me time and again that 'unfortunately this type of thing is becoming more and more common'. Infectious disease doctors are starting to meet regularly to discuss this 'unknown infection'. I was not supposed to live. In fact, I am the first known survivor in Michigan! I am now back to teaching full time without any side effects!
I hope this will serve as a means of encouragement to everyone. There is hope, even when the doctors can't give you any. I will continue to visit this blog and pray for Sage and the family.
