Trip To The Hospital



December 19, 2008

Here we are waiting for David's appointment at Evergreen Hospital. I take every chance I can to get a picture with him, as I never know when the time will come when photo ops are not an option.

The doctor drained over 2 liters this time, and said that this condition could continue to happen every few days, or so! :( Last night David was in a LOT of pain, which scared me; we haven't experienced that before. I was praying over him, and we were both in tears. I called Michelle, and she FLEW over here to spend the night with us. We thank God for our daughter's love and support.

After David took some pain pills, he was better. All three of us watched a movie to keep our minds occupied; Meet The Parents, which of course, is a funny movie, and medicine we all needed for sure.

The edema in David's feet continues to worsen, and he pretty much stays in his recliner for the most part.

At this point, I feel like I'm having an 'out of body' experience, as it has gone past a painful and surreal feeling to one that is scary, heart-wrenching and numbing...

As always, thank you all for your constant outpouring of love, support and prayers.

With Much Love,
Linda

P.S. We don't know which ANGEL to thank for shoveling the entire driveway and walkway! Thank you very much!

AND... a HUGE thank you to our friends, Sean Rierson for taking us to Evergreen Hospital yesterday, and to Dawn-Marie for picking us up in their 'snow rigs!'
