In some desperate need of prayers right now for Colleen. The doctor did another MRI this morning and discovered that the pressure in her brain was pushing her entire brain over to one side-a rare very CRITICAL event called locked brain syndrome. He is one of the top neurosurgeons in the U.S. for this particular type of surgery, and has only seen two cases like this in over 2,500 cases. One case he was able to help by going in and relieving the pressure and the other case he wasn't able to help. She is going into surgery now.
Please pray.
Would you mind commenting too that you are praying for her?
Feeling like I need to have some more visible evidence that more people are lifting her up right now.

I started following you right after you had sweet Olive. I don't remember how I found you but I've followed and prayed with and for you since, through hope, sorrow, joy (new little one soon!) and now through this. Stay strong, know that He is your strength. Isaiah 41:10

Here is a song I've had on my mind all day....been praying for you and Colleen and the rest of the family and saying extra prayers with each carepage update. I learned ASL in college when I had a deaf roommate. This girl does a good job interpreting the song, but you can hear the music with it. It made me think of you.

We've never met, but I worked with Stacia several years ago. We prayed for Olive, and have continued to follow your ministry and pray for your work too. My family and I are praying right now for Colleen and all the people who love her.

Praying constantly for all of you. Thinking of you as you wait halfway around the world...hard to not be there with the family right now.
Just read the blog update. Will definitely be praying.
I will be praying for Colleen. I found your site through a friend sharing Olive's story and I have followed it since. I was drawn in by Olive's beautiful name and the story behind it and her beautiful story of life. Your honesty and sharing has been a challenge to me and a blessing. God's comfort and grace to your and your family!
I am praying along with Matt and my mom. Love and hugs sent your way!
Lynette, we are in prayer for you and Rusty's family. I can't imagine the difficulties you are all facing, especially with the distance between you and everyone else. We love you.
We have been and will continue praying.
We are praying!
Lynette & Rusty - We are so sorry and are lifting our prayers to God that He will miraculously heal Colleen. We will continue to pray.
Blessings and comfort. Alan

Praying for you guys. I don't remember how I came across your blog but I have been reading since you had your little Olive. While we don't know each other, I went to LC so I know of the Polinder family. I have been meaning to leave you a comment for some time. We had identical twin boys in June. One of our sons died soon after he was born and our other son has been in the NICU for 3 months. I understand the pain of losing a child and of going through the NICU roller coaster. I just wanted to say that I am praying for your family and for your new little baby. I am so, so sorry for the loss of Olive.
We are praying for you Colleen, much love to you and the whole family. You have been very close to our hearts for many many years.
you all have been on our minds constantly- much love-
Just read your blog & Ron's. Thinking of you and praying for you. Thank God that Collen is improving!
