Embolisation Needed 9:15 am ** Paula's second angiogram - 7am 8/26/26

In support of
Paula VandenOever & family

Update!
I spoke with Paula's surgeon at 9:10 this morning after he went in for a look. Everything seems good to him, but he wants to double up the protection.

So she's being put under anesthesia, and at about 10:00 will undergo another stent placement so they can double down on the fix. He'd hate for there to be a vasospasm in her future.

Hi everyone - we'd appreciate your prayers as Paula is now undergoing an angiogram. Our surgeon is looking at the aneurysm repair to see how it's holding up. I'll get a call if there are measures he needs to take once they get in there. Pray that it's holding well.

The anesthesiologist was a gem--so relational and conversant, as well as the attending. And we got our "favorite" nurse on the scene with us again today (hard to pick a favorite with all the exceptional nurses, but oops, we did). Thank you!

Hi there, This is Kimberly, one of the 2nd grade teachers that teaches with Paula at Prince. We have been praying, praying, praying for Paula's full recovery. I appreciate the updates on Paula as this causes to not text Paula if she's trying to rest. Prayers for you and y'all's children for strength and peace.

Thank you for the updates, John! So shocked to hear about this. I was in the nursery on Sunday & missed whatever was said during the service. Praying for Paula and all of you through this!
