Her son Stellan is desperately in need of prayers right now.

Long story short - she lives in the "frozen Tundra." She is alone half way across the country in Boston. Her husband just missed his flight out. Her son, Stellan was diagnosed with SVT (surpraventricular tachycardia - an irregular heart rate/rhythm) in utero, and his parents were told he would not be born alive. Not only did he make it to delivery, he was born seemingly healthy. However, the SVT reappeared around 4 mos and he has spent a fair amt of time in the hospital. (he is now just over a year, having celebrated his birthday in the PICU). He was flown to Boston late last week in preparation for an ablation tomorrow, in attempt to "fix" his SVT. However, he became increasingly unstable today and was emergently rushed into surgery a few hours ago. Apparently, he got so bad today that his heart actually stopped. He coded. While he mom (alone) watched in horror. This woman is so amazing. She (and her son, and his doctor's) desperately need prayers right now. Please pray!

Sending prayers. It's so hard to see them go through this.
