Another semi-remote report tonight as I have been wrapped up with classes in the morning and evening but I did get to go to the hospital in the middle of the day. Chloe was looking pretty well today but she is really congested. And now we are told to hold off on suctioning her unless she REALLY requests it. Apparently it can create more mucus by suctioning too often and she has the staff infection, which adds to the mix. On top of that she has an eye infection. One thing after another.<\/p>\n
I emailed with her a few times today. I told her I hoped she was having a good day. She reminded me that a good day in the hospital is a bit of an oxymoron. I told her every day she makes forward progress is a good day for us. She then wished that I would have the best day of my life this upcoming week. She\u2019s sharp!<\/p>\n
When I was at the hospital I was asked to blow up the beach ball that Patty Brandt got for her. The guesses were 22, 17 and 13 breaths\u2026 I said 7\u2026. But it took only 4 \u00bd. Being a saxophone player had something to do with it. We then proceeded to put the ball in every awkward place of the room, so I got my yoga in today as well.<\/p>\n
Dana and Sandy were busy on the laptops so it was just Chloe and I left to bounce the ball off their heads and knock things off the shelves. Hey, if they want to sit out on the fun\u2026 My trip to the hospital today was definitely in the timeframe of a visit. I had to leave in about 2 hours to go back to Wilsonville. So I picked up the dirty laundry and dishes and a few Peace Sun shirts that were ordered and I was on my way.<\/p>\n
Karen Preston has dropped by a few times and is quite a bit of help. She is setting up a website calendar to have people sign up for help at the hospital and with meals, etc. This will be loads of help.<\/p>\n
Annette, Chloe\u2019s sitter was able to come by yesterday and brought Molly, Chloe\u2019s good friend. It was a good visit from what I hear. She sure likes the little visitors. She hopes to have Rev. Barry and Heather AND CJ sometime this week. We\u2019ll figure out what night will work.<\/p>\n
All in all we have had a fairly good week. That really sounds funny to say when we are all wiped out, sore, grumpy and stressed. I guess \u201cgood\u201d is a relative term. <\/p>\n
Oh yea, Jeremy posted some new pictures yesterday. You need to scroll down from the News Blog in order to see them. They turned out pretty well. <\/p>\n
Be well,
