certainly a big loving help to them..

has been admitted to Hospital

has been admitted to the hospital today. The doctors want to

aggressively treat the pseudomonas infection she has in her lungs that are

raising havoc. She will go in for a brief surgery in the morning so they

can insert a port-line that will stay in a strong vein for a couple of

weeks. It will be use to deliver the strong antibiotics and any other

medication she may need directly into her blood stream. The plan is to

treat her infection, then on Wednesday the 27th of November she will have

her feeding tube placed in her tummy. Then she will stay for a couple days

post-op and hopefully go home on the 30th or the 1st of December.

Steve(Daddy) will be staying tonight and tomorrow and then we will

begin a rotation of family members staying with her 24/7. Stevie(little

brother) will be staying with Gram and Grampy throughout the time.

loves company and would be trilled with visits, as well, (I'm sure) her

parents or whomever else is staying with her would.

Your prayers and notes of encouragement to Steve, as well as to

Steve and I have been a great source of comfort at this most unnerving time.

Because of the length of time involved and the seriousness of her illness,

along with her lack of energy, is feeling a bit sad and is quick to

have a teary melt down when least expected. (As she is well deserving of)

She could use some cheering up and boy, oh, boy would she be trilled if you

could pass this on to everyone one your e-mail list and if everyone could

take the opportunity to drop her a card or a note it would left her up- big

time! I realize everyone is busy this time of year and it would take a bit

of time, but it would mean alot to our family and especially to and

we would be so grateful to you. We also know that with the love and

support of friends and family we will stand firm together to fight this

horrific disease. Blessings to you and your families and once more, thanks.
