4/21/09 - Please Lord, Help Us!!!

We are sitting here thinking of the right words to say, but there are never the right words to say when your life has been turned upside down in a blink of an eye.

"I am praying, Lord, that you will speak through me and deliver this message to shine a light on others for them to show you how special Kayleigh is to all of us and how we are not ready to say goodbye."

We need your prayers right now! Something terrible is going on with Kayleigh and no doctor or specialist can lay a finger on what has caused this to happen. Our hearts are breaking right before our eyes and we are in complete shock at the moment. Please help us.

As you all know, post surgery seemed to go as expected. Normally, it gets worse before it gets any better, but Kayleigh was showing great signs of recovery. Although, after a couple days and things progressing normally, sweet Kayleigh is not waking up anymore. She is no longer on the Nitric or any pain medication. She is on very low settings beyond the expected pressure control to help her breath. Her sats are great and her heart rate/blood pressure is right where it should be. However, she is still not waking up like she should be at this point.

Her sweet tiny body lays still, with very slight (unexplainable) movements at times, while her muscles are contracted beyond any measurable understanding. The thought of some kind of neurological problem quickly raised a red flag and an EEG test was conducted only to show that a big section of Kayleigh's brain (cerebral cortex) is not working at all and may never work again. In other words, the doctors stated she has a flat reading, which is another term for being brain dead.

This is so hard to write and so hard to take in right now. The doctors plan to do more testing to see what could have caused this to happen and why she still makes unexplained movements. Was it the excess pain medication they gave her to calm her down? Was it a stroke that she encountered while fighting off the pain the other night? Was there not enough oxygen or blood flow to the brain? Did the Nitric cause this? Barbiturate poisoning can cause flat readings at time, so could that be the case? (She had some phenobarbital this morning) With all these questions running through our heads, we have no idea, but we pray we will get the answers as quick as possible.

This has all happened so sudden and we don't know what is going to happen from here or what to even do. All we can do is pray there was some error, some mistake, something was overlooked or by God's grace, her brain will miraculously start working again. We have all seen miracles happen with Kayleigh many times before and I have learned my lesson by giving up hope and not trusting that the Lord has the final decision. That is not even a question in my mind anymore.

Unfortunately and sadly, no one else is optimistic when it comes to Kayleigh's recovery from this and when the doctors comforting love turns in to the "matter of fact" attitude, we know they have once again lost hope. The doctors have been amazing through this journey and we know they will do everything in their power to help Kayleigh through this. There is no one else in this world we would trust other than them, but it just hurts sometimes to compare Kayleigh to other situations when Kayleigh has created her own case study of uniqueness.

With all the faith in the world, it still hurts to think that this journey may end so drastically and beyond understanding. Kayleigh is our precious gift from God and He has given us this sweet miracle for a reason. Whether she touches someones life to bring them closer to God or closer to their family, we may never know the true reason until we meet our creator face to face. We have to trust God for the things He does, but staying strong and patient for those answers are practically unbearable at times.

We know the doctors are not as optimistic and statistics prove that Kayleigh's chances are very slim right now, but we all know our Lord all too well and His way will be the right way. We don't know what is going to happen in the next day, week or month, but if we could ask for anything from you all, please pray your hearts out and please keep us strong with your support through these difficult times. Please pray that the Lord will fix Kayleigh's brain waves so she can continue to bless all of us with her amazing strength, love and that adorable little smile. Thank you.


"Lord Almighty, You are so amazing and your love is beyond greater than any words we could ever imagine. We are not blaming you one bit or nor are we angry at you for what is going on here because we trust in you and we love you with all of our hearts.

We beg of you not to take our little girl from us. Heal her troubled body and give her the strength to make it through this devastating circumstance so she can come home to our family who anxiously awaits with open arms.

Our faith is so strong and we know you are so powerful to do anything your will desires. If Kayleigh is ready to go to heaven to be with you, we completely understand, but then please give us the strength to live our lives without seeing her precious smile and filling our hearts with happiness every single day. Give us direction to continue to share her precious story to help so many others come to know you Lord, love each other and find hope in their own journeys. We know that we are here to prepare our lives for eternity with you, so we trust that your decision is the right decision.

We are just not ready to say "Goodbye, for now."


Please Lord, Help us!!!

My heart is so broken for you as parents as I read this tonight. I know this is such a sad hard time for you and Aimee. I had written you earlier today that for some reason today I had Kayleigh on my mind and prayed for her while at my DR appt. I wonder now if this was why. I have a child who had a massive stroke at 6 months old and was not suppose to live. The odds were VERY bad. We were told he would not live thorugh the night. And yet he is still with us today. I pray with all my heart that tomorrow brings better news for your sweet baby girl. She is a angel to so many of us.
I am praying non stop.

Please give her a kiss and hug from me and know that I as well as thousands of others are praying hard for you all right now.

I am praying and have forwarded on the link for the post to our family and church (just as I did in December) and we will all be praying very hard. The lord has tested you and your family many times over the last year and every time he has answered all our prayers for your baby. He will do what is right for this beautiful baby girl.

Anonymous said...

As I sit here speechless reading your words, I have faith. There's a reason Kayleigh made it this far. I can't think of words to say so I grabbed my bible, through my tears I found this:
Psalm-116
I love the lord because he hears and answers my prayers. Because he bends down and listens, I will pray as long as I have breath. Death had its hands around my throat; the terrors of the grave overtook me. I SAW ONLY TROUBLE AND SORROW. THEN I CALLED ON THE NAME OF THE LORD:
PLEASE LORD SAVE KAYLEIGH!!! How kind and merciful, this God of ours. The LORD protects those of childlike faith; she was facing death and then he saved her. Now I can rest again, for the LORD has been so good to us. He has saved her from death, our eyes from tears, and our feet from stumbling. And so I walk in the LORDS presence as I live here on earth.

"We have to trust God for the things He does, but staying strong and patient for those answers are practically unbearable at times."

Never use the word "but". It negates everything you thought and said. It is a form of weakness, and doubt. Trust in the Lord. Pray strong, and positive. Do not doubt. Keep your faith at all times. Even when you feel like it is all for nothing. He is never wrong in his decisions. Whether He heals her, or takes her home. Be strong, be positive, be faithful, & believe. We all love Kayleigh, and your prayer warriors have already begun. Bless you.

I've been reading your blog for a while and never left a coment, but I want to tell you that your little girl really touched me in a way I did not expect, she opened my eyes to a lot of things, and although I never usually do this I'll be praying for her.
I cannot imagine what you must be going through and I really pray you'll get to take your little girl home and watch her grow and be the happiest person in the world.

God is our Refuge and Strength, a very present Help in troube.
Therefore we will not fear, thought the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;...
Psalms 46:1-3

Hast though not known, hast though not heard that the everlasting God-the Lord- the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not..-Isiah 40:28

I just felt led to let you know that the God we serve is the creator of the universe, yet He cares enough to know who we are and what we need. He is going to take care of y'all- no matter what the outcome to this plan that He has had in motion since the beginning of time.

I believe that everything that is allowed to happen, happens to glorify Him.

I'm reminded of Job- where the devil had to ask for permission before he could tempt God's people. And God said have you considered My servant Job? (I'm paraphrasing, of course) But it has always marveled me as to why would God suggest one of His own to be tempted. He already knew (I believe anyway) how Job would react to such trials and temptation. So, I wonder was it that the end result was so great and He knew that only by Job going through His complete plan that he would be able to experience such greatness? Honestly, I still don't know. (And I am not completely sure why I shared that with you) but I do know that God see's the end from the beginning- where as we see only what is in front of us now. But He is faithful.

He never promised that the cross would not get heavy (for we are crusified with Christ) but He did promise that help WOULD ALWAYS COME in time! For He will go with you- even til the end.

Tonight you have my prayers and my hope, my faith, and my compassion. And most importantly you have God's grace, peace, presence, shelter, comfort, and love.

Trust in Him- not in what things seem to be. He loves you and knows what is best for everyone.

Pennie said...

As I was reading your post, I recalled the story of Abraham and his son Isaac, when God told Abraham to offer Isaac as a sacrifice. Abraham took Isaac up the mountain, and as he raised his hand to sacrifice his precious child, God sent a lamb to be sacrificed instead. I remember hearing my minister say many years ago, and it always stuck with me, maybe just for the reason of sharing with you, that God didn't want Isaac to be the sacrifice. He only wanted to know that Abraham's heart was in the place of being willing to give his son to God if that's what God requested. When God saw Abraham's heart, and that he would have offered his child to Him, God then sent a way out for Isaac. God wants nothing or no one to stand between us and Him, and He sometimes sends us tests and trials to see where we stand, and where He stands with us.

I pray ever so hard that God will bring perfect healing to this precious baby, and restore your faith in a way that you will sing His praises forever. I pray that God will put His arms around you and Aimee so strongly that you will feel Him literally calming you and bringing you peace.

Dear God, please destroy all fear and doubt that satan and his demons have caused this family. Please surround Kayleigh and her parents with your angels, and heal her little body in the way you see fit. Give her parents, and all of us who love them, the understanding to accept your promises and your will for their lives. We love you Lord and we trust your perfect plan for this family as they seek You in all they do. Lead them Father and comfort them with Your peace and love. In Your precious, holy Name, Jesus. Amen.

Love and many prayers for all of you!

And do remember that God's plan is the right plan. God is going to heal your sweet Kayleigh, either here on earth or in Heaven where she can dance with Jesus!!

The tears are flowing and my heart is aching for you sweet Freemans. Oh, Dear Jesus, we know you are the Great Physician, please give the strength, and comfort and grace the Freemans need right now in this hour of great need. Please work in little Kayleigh's body. Oh please Lord, help them now. In Jesus's name, amen! I love you folks! I will be on my knees!

right thing at exactly the right time. You are being lifted up for strength, wisdom, and peace.

I cried out to him, and he answered my prayer. Psalm 120:1

I am praying for your sweet baby girl and your family. I work in a NICU in TX and can testify that the Lord is truly present and He LOVES His babies. The inspiration of your journey and how you have embraced the miracles along this road is incredible, the Lord is glorified and honored.

God in His perfect love always wills what is best for us, through His infinite wisdom He always knows what is best for us and in His sovereignty He has the power to bring it about.

God could not let this little sweet angel go through all of this only to have it all end now. For a baby who was not supposed to make it through the pregnancy it can not end like this! She is supposed to live a long healthy life! God would not do this and I am praying right now that there is some other reason these tests came back the way that they did. My heart is breaking and I can not stop crying thinking about this poor sweet angel. Kayleigh has over come many situations when no one thought there was hope and she will pull through this!! Praying praying praying for you all!
Dear Lord,
Please lay your hand on this beautiful baby girl once again and heal her to be allowed to be with her family for once and all. Lord I pray that Kayleigh get to experience all that life has to offer. We pray that if you do decide to bring this sweet angel home that you give peace and comfort to her family and all those who have followed her story and those whos lives she has touched.

JessicaNICU RN said...

I am a NICU RN, and I can only say that we usually do not place a small preemie like Kayleigh through so many different procedures in one day,as it is very traumatic to their system/body. Perhaps there is a lot of swelling that is placing pressure on her brain right now. Have they used any meds to try to reduce her swelling? Please please INSIST on a second opinion!!!!!!! I beg of you not to just go by what these docs are saying. Do not give up on Kayleigh! We will keep praying for her healing. xoxo..Hang in there Freemans. We lift you up in prayer.

PLEASE GET A SECOND OPINION!! DEMAND IT! ITS YOUR RIGHT! HAVE HER TRANSFERRED TO A BETTER CHILDRENS HOSPITAL IF YO HAVE TO. YOU ARE YOUR CHILDS BEST ADVOCATE. LOOK HOW MCKMAMA FLEW STELLAN ACROSS THE COUNTRY FOR THE BEST CARE FOR HIS ISSUE. YOU CAN DO THE SAME! WE ARE BEHIND YOU!

Praying for Kayleigh. Your story has affected me in a way I never expected and definitely brought me closer to God. No matter what the outcome here, your daughter has been a force for so much good in the world. I pray for her healing!!!

The Hands said...

I have been to your site before and have been amazed at Kayleigh's story. I haven't been in awhile and thought I'd check in tonight to see the latest progress. I didn't expect this. Please know that you have someone praying for your family in Alaska. Your story of strength and love only comes from God the Creator, that is plain to see. I will be praying for complete peace amidst the tears in whatever lies ahead. "Some of the Lord's greatest blessings come in some of the most painful packages, but blessings they are." (A quote I received from a friend while I was agonizing in the hospital with my daughter.)
God bless you,

Words can't begin to discribe how you must be feeling right now. Kayleigh has overcome so many things in her short life. Her strength is an inspiration to all who are facing adversity. I pray each day for your family and know what ever the outcome God will be there to guide you and support you through this journey.

Michelle said...

God WILL answer the prayers for healing going up on Kayleigh's behalf... He promises to answer all our prayers.

i'm praying that the answer will be the one we want.

people often confuse getting a "yes" answer with the prayers being answered at all - but this isn't the case. one way or another, God WILL heal Kayleigh... but He doesn't promise us it'll be the way we want Him to.

i'm choosing to pray that God will heal Kayleigh in the way we all so desperately want Him to, that He will work yet another miracle and let all these people be witness to it. i'm also praying for peace for your family & wisdom for the doctors and decisions everyone will be making about Kayleigh's care.

praying in His power,

Dearest Freemans -
You are in my thoughts and prayers, My daughter was born early and I too have experienced the roller coaster you have been on for sometime now. During her 4 months in the NICU, I discovered your story and it brought such comfort, strength and inspiration in the darkest of times. I am so sorry for this recent turn of events, but will pray for your little angel and for your family. God bless you.

Lisa said...

I am completely speechless. I was just showing my dad pictures of sweet Kayleigh along with pictures of Stellan today, and we were talking about how amazing God is using these babies for His glory. I just cannot believe her story is over. I am praying this is some terrible "glitch" and all will be well soon. If it is not, I will pray for a peace like no understanding for you, as I can imagine you need it. We all need it, whether we admit it or not. Let me take back what I said just a few sentences ago, "I cannot believe her story is over." No matter WHAT happens, Kayleigh's story will NEVER be over, it will just be told differently than we thought. I cannot imagine how you feel. I honestly thought she was VERY QUICKLY on her way to a perfect mend. I still will pray for that, and for guidance and peace for all involved.

Sara Joy said...

I will never stop praying for your little Angel! Please know that everyones heart is aching for all of you right now and we are all crying with you.

Ezekial 16:6 ~ "When I passed by you and saw you wallowing in your blood, I said to you: "Live in spite of your blood." Yea, I said to you: "Live in spite of your blood."

Faith is being sure of what we hope for, and it is the substance of what we can't yet see. Lord, we know that your Word says in Proverbs, "It is life and health to ALL our flesh", so we speak your Word of Life over Kayleigh's brain right now, and say "LIVE, in Jesus Name." We curse the spirit of death and receive the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus. Jesus bore the stripes and the crown of thorns to bring healing to Kayleigh's body, in Jesus Name. The death angel had to passover the children of God because the Blood was applied over their doorposts and their children. We, in faith, apply the Blood of Jesus over Kayleigh's life and command all destruction to pass over her now. Father, thank you for sending your Word and healing Kayleigh and delivering her from all destruction. Thank you that your mercies are new every morning. Thank you for your faithfulness and your comfort. Deliver her from all distress and give her peace, in Jesus Name.

Praying the Sun Stand Still Prayer:


"We confess our dreams are way too small
God for who You are
You're beyond expectations
We're crying out for restoration here
You are the God who saves
You're beyond limitations

Sun stand still
Oceans part
Nothing is too hard
Nothing is too hard
Refuge for the weak
Strong and mighty
Nothing is too hard
Nothing is too hard

Within us, the spirit who raised Christ
Victor over death
You're the God of resurrection
More than we could ask or imagine
This promise is ours
The hope of our salvation

Sun stand still
Oceans part
Nothing is too hard
Nothing is too hard
Refuge for the weak
Strong and mighty
Nothing is too hard
Nothing is too hard

We believe, we believe that You are God
Nothing is too hard."

Aimee and Adam,
I'm sitting here at work (at 4am) and decided to check up on Miss Kayleigh. I saw the title of the post, and figured that she had another bad PPHN spell - something like that.

Never in a million years did I expect to read what I did.

As soon as I started into your post, the NICU nurse in me knew exactly where you were going. My heart sank, the color drained from my face, and the tears started. My roommate at work asked if I was alright - that's how much shock I was in. I even closed out the window of the post and re-opened it, because I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

I see miracles in the NICU every day. Miss Kayleigh is most definitely one of them. Don't give up. Make sure you get every test imaginable done - twice. Talk with every doctor, from every available hospital.

When the Mom of my primary baby here in the NICU called this morning - she was in tears. She has also been following Kayleigh's journey. She wanted to let you know that you are all in her (as well as my) thoughts and prayers right now.

With love from Chicago,
Jessica B
