Relief for Dennis Morris and Kaitlyn Watkins

On May 6th  Kaitlyn was found unresponsive and transported via ambulance to St Joseph London and was then transferred to St Joseph Lexington. When she was brought into the hospital they initially thought that she had spinal meningitis after finding her white blood count was at 36, but later seemed to think she had hit her head sometime between Tuesday and Thursday. It is believed that her brain began swelling sometime between 5am and 3pm on Thursday; she had seizures causing her to lose oxygen for a significant amount of time which also lead to her having a heart attack. She has an anoxic brain injury which means her brain went with out oxygen for a long time. She has been on life support but she can breath on her own for now and does have brain waves. An MRI revealed there will be irreversible brain damage but they do not know to what extent at this time. There are plans to insert a PIC line and a trach if she does not improve or wake up by Friday or Saturday. Dennis has been splitting his time between London with their 1 year old son, Judah, and Lexington to be by Kaitlyn's side. He can not possibly concentrate on his work at this time and be with both Judah and Kaitlyn. We are trying to provide him some financial relief and lessen some of his worries. We are asking for donations to help him with gas to travel back and forth(1+ hr one way), household bills, food for him and Judah, diapers, wipes, etc. Please continue to pray for healing for Kaitlyn and also Dennis and Kaitlyn's family, they have a long road ahead of them. Thank you in advance!
