Lyloo, know that you and your sister-in-law are in my thoughts and prayers.

For ever heart that gathers together
Comes the strength that is needed
Comfort that is required
And, the love from knowing we care
For one another

God be with you and your sister-in-law, lyloo.

Thank you so much for this prayers thread and for the candles.
I don't have anything new to tell right now, I had Charly on phone again, but he could only talk to her very briefly as nurses were in her room to do some care and asked to stop the communication. From my side I could also not speak to her as the line is always occupied.
I'll go to my parents in law tomorrow noon, my brother in law will also be there (not my SIL's husband, but her brother) and I know he could speak to her and also to their other brother who's living in the same town as she does. I think I will then have more precise informations, as, as I told Halexzo, the only information I have from my side came from my Father in law yesterday evening, and he was in such a panic that he could't explain me precisely what was going on.
The only thing I know is that after one week severe headaches and strong medication with no improving, she went to hospital to make a scanner. They found out that her 2 cervical arteries were very weak and damaged and that they were almost"broken" so they did transfer her immediately to intensive care unit where she under blood transfusion and anticoagulant is.
I'll keep you informed as soon as I will know more.
Thank you again for the prayers, though I think she's not believing, I now how precious and helpful the power of prayers can be...


Edited to add an update

I could at last manage to have one of my brothers in law on the phone. In fact she has a light break of anevrism on the 2 arteries. One is more severe then the other. They do still investigate why it happened, as the first question from the medical staff was if she had an accident recently (she didn't). The place and the damage done to the arteries , as well as the hematoms associated are usually only seen in case of accidents, so they don't understand and still do search the reason. As for now they do put by side the "from birth" (sorry I don't know how to explain) weakness.
Right now the treatment consists in anticoagulant, but as they're not sure it will be enough, surgery can also be an option if anticoagulant don't improve her state.
I will also try to get his husband on the phone, but later this evening as he's certainly at her side at hospital right now, and will keep you informed as soon as I know more.

I just wanted to transmit many many thanks from my father in law who was very touched by this thread and all the candles burning with healing prayers and thoughts. He doesn't have internet, but I did note each and every word and translated to him. He asked me to thank you all with tears in his voice.
Her daughter is still "stable" but very tired, and I told him to transmit all my healing wishes to her when she will call, as she can't speak very much, it exhausts her fast. They wait for her to call, so they are sure they don't interupt cares or wake her up when she tries to get rest.
Thank you again

Thank you lyloo for the update and yes, she needs all the rest she can get and I so hope and pray for her to be ok.

And please tell your father in law that we all here will pray for her and keep the candle burning, and our thoughts are with her whole family.

My sister in law goes slightly better, headaches are a bit lower, but she's still very tired and can't sleep as he neck aches are still very important. The anticoagulant treatment continues, as it seems to work. We hope she won't need surgery. As for now she's still in intensive care, but she should be transferred in a "normal" neurologic service soon if things continue to improve.
Thanks for the candles, prayers and kind words , and appologies for not being often online lately.
I'll keep you updated.

Thank you Lyloo for the update, glad to hear she is at least a little better, and please dont appologise for not having the time to be here, Family is always first.


My thoughts and prayers continue to be with her and her family and will keep the candle burning.

Lyloo, Bill wants you to know that your sister in law is in his prayers and wishes her to get well soon.

Thank you Mr Bill for prayers and get well wishes they're greatly appreciated

The latest update I have is that my SIL went back home. She's still followed by the docs and a nurse comes everyday to do the necessary cares. I think it's similar to all the big cities, not enough room in hospitals, so they send people back home as soon as they go a bit better.
She'll however have to do checkups and exams every week at hospital.
If it's tough for her, it's good for her little daughter who was really shocked and began to behave like a baby again, although she's 3 years old. She refused to eat, began to pee in his pants again...her dad didn't know what to do, as she's a very clever little girl who already knows to read and count. But since her mom is back home, it seems that everything came back to normal again.
Obviously, my SIL will certainly have a long recovery period. I know it'll be very difficult for her, as it's the first time she faces illness and is someone very (in my opinion too much) active, working as accountant from 7 AM until 9 PM (and like every woman , having to do the home tasks when she comes back home). Fortunately, her husband is a very nice guy, and no doubt he's (and will) help her as much as he can.

Thank you so much again for all your prayers and wishes.
Love you all

Huuuuugss!!

Thank you lyloo for the update, good to hear she is back home and yes, it will take time for her to recover fully.

My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family and do hope she is getting completely well soon.
