fevers & answered prayers

Last night Sara had a restless night....a lot of discomfort, itchiness, and so on.  The itchiness (we are hoping) is coming from rapid healing. A different cream was used with the leaves and later discovered that they should not have used the leaves with the cream. Sara also has very sensitive skin (always has) and we are hoping this is not a reaction to the salve and leaves. 
A *whitish film* has appeared on her burns....this is a good thing as it is part of the healing process and following that a brand, new layer of skin! It is all such a slow, learning process for us as well as Sara's healing will be! 
Her dressings are still a long, learning process and is very scary for her.  
This forenoon she developed a fever and is so listless.  So uncharacteristic of her....no smiles....little response, etc. It breaks our hearts to watch and see her in this way. We are once again reminded of the power of prayer...we sent out text messages to friends and family of her fever and within minutes she fell asleep. Praise the Lord! Her fever has not broken....so continue to pray! Thank-You for standing in the gap and praying for the healing of our sweet Sara.
Carrie....for the Masts
