Miracle Morgan: God's Presence

God's Presence

Now that I have a few minutes, just wanted to share some of the amazing things The Lord has already done this week. First, he has appointed our medical team. Dr. Clark and Dr. Lee are among the very best. They are so calm, knowledgeable, confident, personable, and reassuring. Our nurses have been nothing short of phenomenal. Carrie, our day nurse was actually off work today but asked to come in today so she could stay with Morgan! She is the one updating us throughout the surgery. Another amazing, but of course less important, however, amazing if you know me, is the fact I was able to sleep all night in the hospital Tuesday night. She had been having seizures all night, which is huge, cause they turn on all the lights and shout out what's happening to the cameras. I didnt even know it. Also, the nurse said Morgan was up playing for two hours and she stayed with her. I knew nothing about it. That shows that The Lord gave me the peace and comfort to sleep. I totally trusted the staff to take care of her. I probably got more sleep that night than I ever do at home. Those of you that know me, know I am always up throughout the night checking on Morgan because she always had seizures at night. But not anymore, thank you Lord! There are more amazing stories that I will try and post later.

Morgan's Story

Our daughter Morgan turned five in December. She was born healthy and developed normally, at first. She began having seizures at the age of two. Since then, her development has halted, even regressed. She now cannot talk. She walks, but is uncoordinated which causes her to fall multiple times a day. She rarely smiles or laughs, since she doesn't feel good.
She is an intelligent little girl that just seems to be trapped in her body right now. Doctors said that the seizures and the medicine were likely holding her back from progressing. She has been on seven to eight different seizure medicines and continues to have multiple seizures daily and nightly mostly during her sleep. The medicines were also affecting her negatively. Some of them made her hyper, some made her so lethargic she couldn't function, and some made her kind of crazy. We tried multiple treatments to try and help her such as diet, supplements, and therapy. We would see fluctuating results. All the while, she just wasn't developing or learning and continued to have daily frequent seizures.
She has undergone multiple testing and seen multiple doctors. Last year, after three days of being in the hospital with video monitoring of her seizures, she was just put on some more medication. At that time, we were told she was not a candidate for surgery as her seizures were coming from different parts of the brain.
In the last couple of months, Morgan's seizures had worsened so much, that we were having to give her the emergency treatments and even called EMS. It was no quality of life for her. We had to do something. We had been so against surgery before, but finally my husband and I had decided we were ok with it and were going to ask the doctors if it was an option now. Well, we didn't even have to ask them because when we got to the appointment, the doctors had looked over her MRI again. After studying her case with a panel of specialists, they had decided that she was now a candidate for surgery. They said they thought they could remove or disconnect most of the areas that were causing the problems.
We are praying and believing that the doctors will be able to get ALL of these problem causing areas. We are believing that ALL seizures will be gone and never return, and medication will no longer be needed. We pray for a speedy recovery with no initial temporary regression( which doctors said was possible). We also pray for total restoration and the ability for her brain to catch up and to learn and develop.

With God ALL things are possible

Thank you all so much for your prayers.
Jeananne, Billy, Will and Morgan Johnson
