Ok.
Ya’ll?
LOVE YOU!
Mom is doing much better…her meds appear to be working (although the doctor’s refuse to do more tests, calling them “unneccessary” and expect her to just “know” that the clots are passing because she’ll “feel better”…MEH! I want tests!)…she is actually FEELING BETTER…and my sister drove down with three of her four daughters and I think having all her kids by her side did a lot to comfort mom through her crisis.
Thank you all for your prayer, they worked wonders and I believe in a powerful God who can work miracles, even in clusters of blood clots in the lungs of my mom.
But it hasn’t been all hospital bound angst…although there was plenty.
My sister was here! WHEEEE!
We don’t get to spend enough time together and I never see my nieces enough.
I got to stay with my BFF and her family and we can never leave soon enough for her poor, beleagured husband….when we arrive it brings the numbers to seven females vs two males….in a one bathroom house. OH HORROR!
I got the chance to play with my new camera some more and I’ve never been so thankful to see a piece of machinery hit the skids as my old camera.
So I leave you with some images of my weekend…and my deepest, most profound thanks for caring and being here for me.

How wonderful that your mom is better! And I am envious of your camera…’cause my new one? That I got in August? Died already. And we can’t find the reciept, so the waranty won’t cover it. So now…all my Wordless Wednesday pictures will be from my only other camera, which is old and sad. :o(

That is nuts that they don’t want to run more tests to see how the medication is working. I am glad that she is doing well and feeling better.

Just found you through 5minutes, your post about becoming advocates was incredibly strong. I admire your digging deep to get ugly. It’s called for sometimes! Here’s hoping you can take a break from having to do it again anytime soon!

I’m so glad to hear that your Mom is feeling better. My Grandma had blood clots in her legs and lungs before….very scarry. I love going home to Indiana to visit family. It looks like you were able to have a little fun.
I haven’t signed the guestbook in way too long. I think about you guys all the time, and of course I pray when you come to mind.
Love ya
