Please Help

Hey All..

A very very special friend of mine was hit by an 18 wheeler truck this morning. She is in Harris Methodist Hospital in Ft. Worth- They say she is going to make it, but has some serious injuries.
Her name is Fonda-and I have can not tell you all how much she has done for me over the last 13 years. While Sadie was in the hospital, Fonda was constantly in touch with me asking what she and her church could pray for.
I pray that God comforts her, and heals her quick.

Rock on,

There is no place like home

They are going to release her today!
I assume they will be home between 5 and 8?

The Dangerous 5 together again!

Update on heart...

HEY!!!
Miriam just called- The cardiologist says that her murmur is just a regular-old run of the mill murmur and does not have anything to do with her being sick.
He thinks she will be out of there today or tomorrow! WOO HOO!

The regular docs were about to make rounds, so we will know more soon.

Waiting

Hey guys-
We are waiting on a consult with the cardiologist. He is going to decide if they are going to continue looking at her heart for any of the cause of this-or-if this is just simply viral pneumonia.
I am going to work @1:30 but if I get any update, I will post ASAP.

Thanks all

The EKG...

The EKG came back normal.

Bedtime tonight...




SNOW at the CHaD...

Here is a link to the place where Sadie is.

Also, Miriam said that while following the ambulance it was snowing! For my family out west, here is the definition of snow:

Snow is precipitation in the form of crystalline water ice, consisting of a multitude of snowflakes. Since it is composed of small rough particles it is a granular material. It has an open and therefore soft structure, unless packed by external pressure.
Snow is commonly formed when water vapor undergoes deposition high in the atmosphere at a temperature of less than 0°C(or 32°F), and then falls to the ground. It can also be produced by hoar frost which falls from the surface on which it is formed, or falling particles of ice fog formed when the humidity in surface air freezes at very low temperatures. Snow is less dense than rain, which means the same amount of moisture will produce a greater volume of snow than it will rain. One rule of thumb is that the water in eight units of snow is equivalent to one unit of rain. See Snow density.

UPDATE

I decided to stay here at home with the boys.

Miriam called- she is so happy they are there- She said the ped unit she is at is REALLY COOL and the doctors are already running test and giving Sadie a bunch of attention.

The doctor told her that the problem could be one of a few things-
1. a simple cold that has gone wrong- and developed into pneumonia
2. a tiny leak in her heart that is pumping blood into her lung- He said this is very fixable.
3. could be related to her heart speeding up.- She had an EKG, but no results back at this point.

I will update as soon as possible.

Go West Sadie, Go West...

This morning the docs told us that Sadie has not improved like they think she should be- so- ...
bum bum pa dummm...
They are sending her back to Darthmouth.

Not sure at this point where the boys and I will spen tonight-

Will update as soon as I can.

Everybody was KungFu Fighting..na na nana na na nana na...

Hey All-

It's Sunday night and Sadie is still in the hospital. They took her IV out, and say she is doing better. Maybe able to come home soon (next day or two???).

Jack is better. We are going to send him to school tomorrow. (he was out all last week)

While waiting for more updates, I thought I would put up a video we took before we all got sick.






Rock on.

The Dangerous 5

How about a couple of pictures of Sadie...

This was taken before she was put back in the hospital- She sleeps like her momma!
