Colleen Parsons Went To Be With The Lord
This is from Nick Parson's CaringBridge entry from yesterday:
Thursday May 10th Colleen Update
Journal entry by Nick Parsons - 14 hours ago
This afternoon at 12:55pm, Colleen entered the presence of Jesus. No more pain or sorrow, no more poking and prodding and tests and IV's. She's at perfect peace with her Savior.
The doctors believe that her septic infection returned and she didn't have the energy left to fight this round. Those of us who knew her best know that she was the strongest woman we've ever known, and she fought this harder than any of the doctors had ever seen, right to the very last minute.
Thank you so much for your outpouring of love, support and encouragement during this battle. Memorial details will be announced once Sam and family return home to California. Continued donations will be used to cover Colleen's medical bills, memorial expenses, and support Sam during this time. We love you all.

Yesterday, Nick Parsons offered this update:
She's hanging tough with Dialysis, and it seems to be working. She is fighting a bacteria, and they have identified it.They are worried about getting her off pressers because blood flow is being cut off to her extremities. This could lead to an amputation. She's also fighting Sepsis, which could cause further infection.
As of today, she has dangerously irregular heart beats. They are going to try paddles or medication to jumpstart her heart.
PLEASE STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND SAY A PRAYER TO OUR LOVING, HEALING FATHER FOR DEAR COLLEEN.

Just got word that Sam Parson's wife, Colleen, is on a respirator and in critical condition in a hospital in Waco, TX. They are not sure what is going on, but there is some sort of mass in her lungs. Many of you will know Sam because he leads Praise and Worship at our national gatherings, along with his son, Nick, in Tulsa. Please Pray for healing, strength, peace.
