Here’s is Parry's Story as of Wednesday (6/26): 

In late April, 2019  Parry developed a cough, and in early May she was examined by her family practitioner.   During the exam, Parry told her doctor that she was at times experiencing difficulty expressing herself and confusion. A chest x-ray revealed pneumonia.
After a week of antibiotics, Parry’s pneumonia cleared, but her strength continued to diminish, and on May 18 Ed, her husband, 
took Parry to the ER at Los Robles Hospital.  Parry was admitted to the hospital that evening.

During her month plus stay at Los Robles, and after numerous tests, the doctors at Los Robles were unable to provide a diagnosis for
Parry’s condition.  Her cognitive abilities deteriorated until she was unable to walk, speak, or eat.
She was now being fed through an IG tube for her final two weeks at Los Robles

Finally after a five day or so wait,  Parry was transferred to the UCLA Ronald Reagan Center for additional testing, evaluation and treatment.  At this point Parry became mostly unresponsive. 

Many, Many Payers!   
So many of you have been praying and asking God to give the doctors the skill & knowledge to find a way to help Parry.   
Parry was then scheduled for more test including an angiogram at UCLA  that confirmed she has an "Arteriovenous fistula"  in her brain.

She underwent surgery on June 25th  and it was successful to repair it!  She should slowly wake up!
God gave us a Miracle and wisdom from the doctors to find out the issue and fix it.

We are still waiting to hear that she is waking up, hoping she will fully recover all her memories and gain her strength back.
We will keep you updated!

It is our prayer that all of her symptoms will be completely reversed!
