you are right Lisa.  She is absolutely strong and God is with her.  Tmac was on a vent for 5-6 weeks and they kept him very sedated too.  She"s young and strong and beautiful!  We love you all.

Hey sweet Mallory! Just want you to know we"re still praying and thinking about you constantly! What a roller coaster ride you are on but we know it"s going to be a victorious one! This will be another miracle to add to your testimony for God. Keep staying strong and courageous!

We love you!

Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9

I know it is hard to not be afraid or discouraged. Just remember God is with you through it all. Hang in there!

Good Morning Mallory!  Hope today brings good new and I hope you feel better!

Hey Mallory,

  i"ve never met you before, but i feel like i know you because Morgan, my "mom" talks so much about you. you"re such a strong young lady and i admire you for that. ai really hope you start feeling better soon and recover as quickly as possible. Praying for you!!

Hey Mallory,

I just want you to know that I have the utmost admiration for you and I have been praying for you everyday. Looking forward to your recovery. Much love, Sarah

I love you so much my sweet girl.  I cannot wait for you to wake up, I have SO much to tell you!!!!!!!!!

Great news on the uneventful day. Those can be a blessing too. I bet Mallory feels better after her spa day and will want to wake up to show everyone those beautiful brown eyes soon. God bless those doctors and nurses who have made it their life"s work to help others.

we continue to pray for Mallory and all of Team Mal!

Hey my sweet Angel!!!

I really need to start a diary of all the things that we need to tell you about when you are well again. You just would not believe....But the most awesome of them all is watching your amazing family bond together and surround you with love and support. They are by your side day and night. They constantly encourage you and keep each other strong. I have grown so close to them and love each and every one of them. And then when David and I needed help they we right there with us....that"s a whole story in itself. They are truly amazing. You get it honestly Mallory.

I love you so much sweetie and I have such strong faith in God that he will heal you. You see, you taught me about faith and I will never lose it.

I"ll see you tomorrow night, praying for a restful night for all!

Rhonda

Lisa,

We love all of the Smiths.  You all are in our prayers and will continue to be.  Mallory is a really strong person, at least in part, due to the role model that her mother has been for her.  Hang in there and we will see you soon.

Still praying for you all... keep the faith! Wanted to share my favorite prayer/ poem with you all:

God hath not promised skies always blue,

Flowers-strewn pathways, all our lives through;

God hath not promised sun without rain, joy without sorrow, peace without pain.

But God hath promised strength for the day,

Rest for the labor, light for the way.

Grace for the trials, help from above,

Unfailing sympathy, undying love.

I hope it helps you as much as it has helped me! God bless you all! Laura (CHOA PICU RN)

Lisa,

We are keeping updated on here and on facebook.  All three of us are concerned, thinking of you all, and saying bunches of prayers. 

Thinking of you all. Praying for Mallory"s recovery and that God will guide the doctor"s and nurses with His love to care for her.

Praise God that her pupils are responding!!  Our prayers will not cease until we see those beautiful brown eyes and she walks out of Emory Hospital!!  Mallory is a fighter and God is the ultimate healer.  I will see you on Wednesday.  Love,  Dawn

I found your amazing story through a friend on Facebook....I was a 2001 Kennesaw Mountain graduate and am now living in 29 Palms, CA with my baby girl and my Marine husband. I just had to leave a note to tell you I am praying, praying, praying hard for you!!!! God has blessed me in so many ways and I can only hope that placed in yours or your parents shoes I would be as strong. Just know you have people all OVER praying for you. Faith is such an amazing thing. God bless you and your family and I am praying hard for a fast recovery for you.
