I'm going to Disneyland on Sunday !!!
Looking forward to the Christmas parade. We've haven't actually sat down for a parade in years, just saw parts of it walking by but back when the Electric parade was there we would always sit up on the train station platform, there used to be benches up there, not sure if they're still there. We had to get there 2 hours early to get one though.
Looking forward to seeing Tiana's Showboat too. Is that something that people will be showing up early for?
Happy weekend everyone !!!

Jen - DLP sounds wonderful. Glad it was not crowded for you. And you got AP's. I'm jealous!

Trudi - Have a great day at DL Sunday.

Happy Friday Everyone.

Not good news I'm afraid.

Dawn had a seizure last night and pulled out her oxygen tube. They are watching her to determine if there has been brain damage because they aren't sure how long she went without oxygen. I'll let you know more as soon as I hear anything.

So I have lots of weekend plans...grungie shopping for the kids, baby shower for a friend I haven't seen in years, and dinner at a friends house with a lady we both used to work with....except I just got a call that they are forcing my out which means the are forcing me to work on my day off even though I did not volunteer. Right now they are trying to find someone to switch shifts with me so I can at least do the baby shower which would mean I could also do the shopping. I am really p.o.'d. Hope everyone is having a better day than I am.

Oh, this is awful news. I am hoping for the best. Thanks for the update, Cheryl.

Cristabel, where did you end up sitting to watch the parade? And how long did you wait?

I sat on the curb in front of the candy store on Main St. I waited 1 hr 30 minutes. I'd recommend bringing a seat cushion if you have sciatic issues because the hard pavement really aggravated my lower back and leg. I had to have intervals of standing and sitting.

I'm so sad to hear about Dawn
This is definitely not good news but I pray that there was no brain damage and that it was a one time backward step.

Hi ladies.

Just received an email from Bob.

I don't know how to link an email, so I have to write it out. I'm sure you will see some mistakes, as I am quite upset.

Hi folks,
I know no other way to say this, but to be blunt. Dawn crashed last night, and did not receive oxygen for a period of time.I thought we had lost her. The crash team responded marvelously, but the extent of the damage if any to her brain is not known. Today she had another episode where her body tried to shut down. They bought her back, but again with the drop in oxygen and blood pressure, more damage man have been done. The neurology team has been brought in and will start assessing. There is swelling on the brain, but she does have brainwaves. Her brain may be perfectly fine,or it could be severely damaged. Everything around her seems to work in 48 hour increments. They tell me we will know for sure by Sunday. In the interim, the hospital has asked me the questions I have been dreading. Please continue your thoughts and prayers for Dawn, but also for everyone who loves her. Hopefully when the tests come back her brain will be fine, and they can continue to fight the H1N1. On that note, the cultures finally confirmed that she has virulent strain of the virus, but we already knew that. I am off quarantine, but she is not obviously.

Thank you all again,

Bob

Like others, I don't even know how to respond. Continuing to pray . . .

I'm SO upset about this news of Dawn.

So am I.

 

[MommyWithDreams]

So am I.

I wish there was something we could do. Just feel so helpless.

 

[KerTggr]

I don't know what to say except that my & my family's prayers are with her.

 

[sahbushka]

I wish there was something we could do. Just feel so helpless.

I agree. I hate this just waiting and hoping. I wish there was a way we could get in her ear and encourage her.

Tinkermell, thank you for posting about Dawn outside of this thread. I had NO idea.
