Abby's Update


Well, it was another very long day at the doctor's office. JJ was out of town, so the kids and I took Abby for a follow up appointment today (yes, all 5 kids) and we ended up being there for 41/2 hours! She had repeat x-rays done, and they weren't very encouraging, apparently. She is scheduled tomorrow at noon to be evaluated by a pediatric surgeon at Children's. We dont know what to make of it, the pediatrician today didn't really say what he thought he saw, I dont think he really knows. We will just continue to pray for her healing. A "Little" praise...the kids were wonderful and very patient while waiting for so long today. Only with God's help can you contain 5 children in a tiny little exam room for that long without any melt downs!

A ROUGH DAY FOR SWEET ABBY


It was a very rough night last night for our precious little Abbygail. I took her to the ER last night with what seemed to be a tummy ache (yes, after 5 kids, you do know when your 3 month old has a tummy ache- despite what the argumentative x-ray tech thinks!) Anyway, the xray showed a bowel obstruction, and she was transferred to Children's Medical Center in Denver for evaluation and admission. After many hours in the ER, more x-rays, and 3 enemas, she still hasn't been successful at relieving herself, but they sent us home to be followed up tomorrow. She still is very uncomfortable. Poor little angel! We will be praying that she will be healed soon and not require any surgery for this.
