Shocker of the Year

Last week, after delivering her baby, my patient coughed up and spit out this 8" worm. And if there is one worm, there are many, many more. And the worst part is that she said she coughed up a worm with her last baby (which was over three years ago!), so she has had them for quite some time.

We agreed to pay for her and her family to be treated, but she has completely disappeared and has not come back for any checkups.

Please pray for Mer and her family--that she will show up at Mercy Clinic again sometime soon and that these worms do not lead to any other complications.
