37 tornadoes in Oklahoma last night - Page 3 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Thank you all for your prayers. Prayers are being heard and improvement for these babies is in progress. The 2 younger ones are now stabilized. Jason the oldest is being taken out of the medically induced coma but still being kept sedated. When they took him off his blood pressure and cranial pressure sky rocketed. So they will keep him sedated. He has moved and squeeze his daddy's finger. He has not yet been considered stabilized.

As far as anyone knows they were in their mobile home. But we may never know as there was no one else at home the time the tornado hit. The took 2 of the children out of trees. Please continue your prayers for these babies as they still have a long road of physical recovery and I can only imagine the emotional recovery when they know their Mother is gone.

Mann's Best Friend in Oklahoma City is organizing a Bake Sale. This is a pet supply store that invites our rescue for "Yappy Hour" from time to time. There has also been set up accounts at 2 different banks for this family. They have lost everything except the clothes on the fathers back. He was on his way home from work when the tornado hit and was not injured. There was a short clip about this family on the Early Morning show this morning when they were reporting about the tornados and destruction in Oklahoma.

Thank you so much for all your prayers and please continue to remember them for the days and months to come.

Kathy thank you for keeping us updated. I've cried and prayed for these children every since I heard about them. Hopefully the generosity of others will help with the material loss, I wish there were a way to help with the loss of their Mom. Poor babies, bless them God.

I can't be at the fundraiser but would you be willing to accept a paypal donation for them from me?

Thank you for the update, Kathy. I'm glad to hear they're all improving. I've been praying for them since I read your first post, hoping for something to ease the ordeal they face in their future.

Thank you for updating us. These children have been on my mind ever since hearing of the tragedy. They were on our local new channel here in the Seattle area too. My heart aches for this family and the long road of healing they have ahead of them.

Thank you for the updates, Hotel4yorkies, and please keep us up to date on their progress. (((hugs))) Donna

I saw the story on the news the other day, just broke my heart.

Here we go again. Right now as we speak a Tornado is touching down near Oklahoma City. Looks like a big one. Oklahoma YTers let us know you are ok.

The Tulsa area had a pretty good scare last night with lots of strong storms with heavy rotations. But, we were lucky again and had only a few very minor touch-downs in rural areas.

I wanted to update you on the little ones in the OK Tornado.

Regan, 18 months, has gone home in her body cast. She isn't speaking yet but we are praying that she will soon. She is staying with an Aunt & Uncle while her daddy and grandparents are at the hospital with her brothers.

Ethan, 3 yr. old, is out of ICU and in his own room. He is progressing slowly with his broken bones. He has been weened off of his ventilator.

Jason, 9 yr. old, is still on ventilator. They did surgery on his hip this past Thurs. and discovered it was worse than they had expected. The just did enough to try and relieve some of the pain. They are very concerned about brain damage as he has not woken up yet.

We held a fundraiser for this family on Saturday at a local pet boutique, Mann's Best Friend, and raised around $3,500 for them. The children and thier dad will be moving in with the grandparents as they are released from the hospital so that she might help the kids with their care. Please continue your prayers for these babies as the road ahead is still a very long one. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers!

Congratulations on the successful fundraisers for this family. Thank you so much for the updates. I continue to keep them in my prayers and you all as well. They will have a long recovery and I can only imagine how difficult it is for this Dad to have to cope with the loss of his wife as well. God bless you.
