Kristi was a vibrant 30 year old mother of a disabled 3-year-old and a nursing infant son, when she developed hydrocephalus and underwent brain surgery.After many surgeries, her body reacted with severe symptoms and she lapsed into a non-responsive coma that lasted three months. The doctors performed a tracheotomy and used machines to help her breathe. She had a feeding tube to provide nutrients and was hooked up to other equipment to keep her alive. Well-meaning friends encouraged her husband to "pull the plug." A successful shunt implant gradually saw Kristi respond to voice commands, but she now was also dealing with blindness and quadriplegia. The long, painful road to recovery then began. She had several setbacks, including a bout of limb-destroying infection, grand mal seizures caused by IV antibiotics, two broken knees from a short fall, double pneumonia and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, double hip replacement surgeries, a catapult from her wheel chair which broke her right femur and left knee, staph infection in the incisions, and other serious problems. Kristi's illness had a profound effect on family and friends, and forever changed lives. Please Don't Pull the Plug is a powerful story about love, loss, endurance, and faith.
