My DD is in the hospital!! ****UPDATE on page 3****

[CDoobee]

My SIL called last night to inform us that my DD is in the hospital. She's in SC and I'm in MO, so I can't be with her! She was born with a severe disability, Osteogenesis Imperfecta or "brittle bones", which her DH has also. So, she's had more than her fair share of hospitalizations, but not for about 7 years and I've ALWAYS been there with her! I know she has her DH with her (they even let him have the other bed in the room), but it's not the same as having her Mommy there!

She went in yesterday after having nausea for about 3 days, and was dehydrated. This happened a lot when she was younger. They also said she has a urinary tract infection, that they think is coming from her kidneys not her bladder, so will be harder to treat. They think she also may have aspirated when vomiting, and may have pneumonia. The chest x-ray report isn't back yet. They have her on oxygen, IV's, antibiotics, and she is scheduled for an abdominal ultrasound tomorrow.

She is very tiny (43 pounds), so all of this is much harder on her than on the rest of us.

Any and all thoughts, prayers, etc. are greatly appreciated. She comes on the DIS (rarely) as Hilside and I will have her read this thread when she is better.

Thanks,
Debbie

Debbie! I am so sorry to hear about your poor daughter! I am sure the doctors will do their very best to get her back on her feet and out of the hospital. My dd is too young to be away from me, so I am only imagine how difficult this must be for you!

Prayers, pixie dust speeding to Florissant and SC!!!

(BTW, I grew up in Creve Couer and spent most of my high school days with my friends from Florissant!)

 

[KathyTX]

You and your sweet daughter will be in my prayers and in my thoughts.

With all this magical pixie dust and the healing, strengthening thoughts flowing from your friends here, I know that your darling little girl (no matter how grown she is!) will be just fine.

Even though you can't be there right now to hold her hand, you know that she carries you in her heart...

I hope your daughter is feeling better soon I think that is is almost as hard on the mommies when the kids get sick, so you keep your chin up too!

Hilside is in my prayers, Debbie, hoping she is okay soon. My very best wishes. {{Hugs}}
