I have REALLY GOOD news, really BAD news, and "Is it Over yet" news.
I'll start with the good. Stellan was discharged from the hospital this morning and will be returning home TOMORROW!!! His heart is better, he is looking and feeling better and boy does his mom want to be home.
Bad news, Dakota has taken a turn for the worse. All I know is the she has a really HIGH fever, her BP is all over the place, and she has several infections she is trying to fight. She was moved from her regular room to the PICU this afternoon.
IIOY - I made another trip to the ER last night. Had 1 test ran, loaded up on pain meds, and was sent home. I have an appt. with MY GI Dr. TOMORROW afternoon. Things will be said/ done at this appt. that will change my life. I won't leave unless this happens. The Dr. may have given up on me, but I have not given up on me. Pray that things go well and I get answers, and if not those than the help that I need NOW.
Please also take time to visit Kayleigh & Gavin's links to the left of this post. They are both need extra prayers this week. For Kayleigh, as she fights to live. For Gavin as he fights his disease and subsquent hospitalizations.

Anyway. I wish you all the best!

Blessings.
