Dad...

Mom is on her way to the ER with Dad. Last nite when she got home from work, he said he wasn't feeling the greatest, he was on his chair all covered up. Then their friends showed up and mom took dad's temp, it was 104. The doc said if it ever got over 102 to call him. They prescribed an antibiotic and mom and all the girls went and got it. he is supposed to take that until it is completely gone. Then he had a little pain, I guess not bad, but enough to be bothersome. He slept on the couch and mom slept on the chair. Mom said he had the chills and then sweats during the nite too. She covered him up with about 3 blankets and laid next to him to try to warm him up. He got up a couple of times during the nite, and then at 5:30, he ate a little something to see if it would help the pain. He has had this pain once before and ate a little something and it helped. So, I guess they went back to sleep for a little, then she called me about 9ish to tell me how they were doing and that dad was in some pain and had a fever. I think his fever went away when she called me, but the pain was still there. It is under his rib cage.
So I got another call and she said she is on her way to the ER, dad's pain was a 7, so she said we are going. But when she told me that, dad pipes up and says it is unbearable (so as he is saying this, she went through a red light! ;o) shh... Don't tell her I told you all!!! ;o)) So I am not sure what the pain is, they aren't sure if maybe the stent moved, or what the pain is... Will update this as soon as I know... Depending on what it is, I may just leave tonite... Waiting to hear what's going on!

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Update on Dad...

Mom called a little while ago. Dad will be admitted, they aren't sure yet what caused the pain. He had fever, but it now is broken. He is also a little jaundice, so that is why they were/are thinking that his stent moved... They had to poke him 3 different times to try and get an IV in, his veins were so tight because he was in so much pain, he was tensing up. They took some blood from both arms and are still waiting on the results of that. They also did a chest x-ray. So still waiting, but atleast he isn't in any pain. The gave him a shot of morphine to take care of the pain, and it finally worked.
