This weekend literally drug by. I mean literally. David and I worked in the yard until about noon on Saturday,
When we came in to shower, there was a message waiting for us, our daughter was sick. Very Very sick.
I called her back and she was resting, but returned the call. A few hours later I was watching our clock. If she was no better they were taking her to ER by 5 PM.
D called me, (her oldest son) and told me she had been taken back to the hospital.
Sher has never been in the hospital except to give birth to babies, have an appendectomy and minor stuff.
You know, Kid stuff. Twisting ankle playing basketball Etc.
So I guess you know I sat by the phone and did NOTHING. I literally did not even shower . I stayed in my PJ's until I heard more. I had no energy to get up and move my body. I don't know what good I thought I was doing by fretting.
But I was not alone, David was in the same boat with me. We were back in bed by 11 AM and sleeping. At 9 PM I was again in bed and so tired.
Stress, even if you hide it, is very tiring.
Today she sounds a lot better, temp is mostly normal, as is the BP. She is such a tiny thing, there is no fat and her organs are squished together, (per the doctor). Therefore they rub, as with her inflamed kidney. It is rubbing and having a harder time healing.
Today she is up by herself and going to the restroom. Prior she had to have a nurse as she was passing out from low blood pressure.
Possibly going home tomorrow. I know her kids miss her horribly. As does Mike.
I am so proud of those kids, As of Saturday evening D made a breakfast casserole to be baked the next morning. They brought their big dog into the laundry room to be their guard and they all planned to sleep in the living room, in case Daddy had to stay the night at the hospital. (they figured it would be safer with all of them together.) Isn't that sweet?
They had it all under control and planned out.
Now if Mamaw will just get busy today. I have already started. Still lots to do.
We have a computer person coming out today to clean up our computer. Clean up as in speeding it up. Taking useless programs off, downloading software. Etc.
I look forward to faster surfing.
So with that I best go to work.
Have a great day all.

Since I have been in here D has made scones, waffles and breakfast casserole.
M fries eggs for the boys and is apparently making grilled cheese right now.
They really did take over and take care of the little guys for me. What great kids.
