Guest guest Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 Gale, Oh Eilish loves the hsp. In the midst of all the tears (mine) she was complaining about 'why can't I go to the reward (ward). I'm like 'get your slippers were going home'. And I know she will adore sharing with other kids, its me who wont. Re: ADMISSION FIASCO , That was a very awful day! I hope that it is a completely different experience on Thursday. How did Eilish hold up? I'm glad that you have . He's always so supportive. Gale > We left home just after 6am for her admission at 7am. First thing to > worry over was the bed situation.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 I mailed that card one week before she was supposed to go to the hospital the first time. I wonder if the hospital hung on to them for her or if it always takes ten days to get there. I hope that the second card that I sent gets there before she goes home. I am glad that the card cheered her. I'm sure that the hospital is getting boring for her. Gale > > Oh I forgot to mention all her cultures and bronchoscopy came back > > clear.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 I wonder if she has gotten my cards, I too sent a FL Post card to here the day it was posted she was going. Then another after all was settled in & a card in envelope to make sure they got there:):) I love you all doing so well so quickly though . How nice to get home sooner if that is possible Holidays will be so much better when she feels good too LOVE & HUGS, GrandmomBEV Re: GALE I mailed that card one week before she was supposed to go to the hospital the first time.
