Dear "pastor ladies on the Internet"
Please pray this morning for T, who is scheduled for the ECT procedure IF she has been given a CAT scan already; if not, she will have the ECT on Monday. Postpartum woes, amounting to psychosis. Please remember her husband, their infant daughter, and T's toddler son...and the grandparents.
Oh dear... how awful. Thoughts for T and family...
ReplyDeleteit's grim, no doubt about it. ECT works, on depression, because after the treatment you can't remember why you were depressed. Of course you can't remember other things, either...
ReplyDeleteI would guess the depression is pretty bad if psychosis is a part of it and they are considering ECT - I have known 2 who have had to opt for that. Prayers being lifted up for T.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Cathy. I am told that post-partum depression is in a league of its own...as to severity.
ReplyDeletePrayers.
ReplyDeleteHolding up T and her family in prayer this evening...
ReplyDeleteoh, prayers...indeed.
ReplyDeletebless you and thank you all. the thought of your prayerful support is very sustaining!
ReplyDeleteAdding my prayers to those of the others. Thank God we live in a time when people no longer automatically say "Gee, why would you feel down in the dumps? You've got a beautiful baby" and then be surprised when the mom gets worse.
