Hi guys.
I need everyone's help right now. A friend from work has been diagnosed with meningococcal on Tuesday. I only found out today that she is in critical condition in a medically induced coma. We have been told there is hardly any chance she will survive this as her body system is badly damaged from the virus. She was sick on Friday when I worked with her, but only had flu like symptoms. Tuesday she collapsed and was rushed to hospital. By the time she arrived at hospital she was fully unconscious. Her hands and feet have already turned black and her body is covered in the rash which is the last symptom to appear.
So I what I am looking for is for as many prayers for Em as possible as we have been told that is all we can do. I know some people are non religious, but I am not really religious myself but we have run out of options and we are asking everyone we know to pray for Em.
Thanks guys and I hope you are all well
Edit:
Just got off the phone with Em's mother. Doc has said that even if she wakes up, we won't know how much brain damage she has and how her internal organs are coping as they are also severly damaged.
