Pixie Dust, Princess Magic and Christmas Cheer!Trip report Day 1

[pipersmom]

Praying for Geneva Claire and all of you guys, hopefully you'll be able to get that bug out of her system asap.

 

[2specialkids]

Just a quick update--GenevaClaire is on some serious steroid medication for her lungs now--she goes back to the pulmo doc on wed--hopefully we'll get an all clear instead of a trip to Club med we're fast approaching two weeks away from the trip

Prayers for a speedy recovery and an all clear from the doc!

A super quick update--GenevaClaire has Pneumonia,the culture came back positive-- she's at home for now, but they are waiting to see if the hospital has a bed--our Peds floor is completely full--absolutely no room and the PICU is full right now too. So PLEASE say a Prayer for her.

Veronica

Can you guys do home IVs Veronica? Just thinking it would at least avoid her being exposed to H1N1. If she does end up in the club make sure you harp on the hand washing. I heard a couple "came in with no H1N1, ended up with it" stories while Piper was in the hospital and that's the last thing we (and you guys) need to deal with!

We did a long time ago but not in the past two years--but she's already had H1N1, that was the first in the line of three, first it was H1N1, then strep, ear infections and conjuctivitis, now the pnuemonia

 

[Lamping3]

Oh no! I will definately keep you in my thoughts and prayers! Hopefully you are getting all of the sickness out of the way before the trip.

I'm sorry..I'd forgotten Geneva Clair had already had it. Just make sure you're careful! Keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers.

Wow.. that sounds horrible. I hope she gets well soon!

Veronica

It's only 12 more days and I just KNOW she's going to be better. We're sending up lots of prayers for her so she's better and has the energy she needs for a wonderful trip. Hang in there Veronica.

 

[MagicMomentsMom]

Thank you all so much for your prayers and well wishes. I'm a nervous wreck She's rested quite a bit today, she's napping again now. The pulmo doc's nurse called to check on her this morning, still no rooms, but since she's not going down hill, we're hoping to keep her out of the hospital. Her Grandma will be coming to watch her this afternoon because I have her IEP meeting at 3pm, which is not my favorite thing to do. I'm taking an advocate in with me, so at least I know things will be taken care of this time around. I'm trying to get all the things together, I've packed quite a bit. I still have it in my head that I'm going to do some tshirts for all of us--but not so sure that is going to happen or not. I'll just have to wait and see. I'm just praying now that she even gets to go on the trip, so not a whole lot else matters as much I guess.

What wonderful news!!!!!

Maybe I'll see you at Pop! I fly in Monday night. Not sure what to pack. Weather.com is showing highs in the 70s/lows in the high 50's but accuweather is showing highs in the 60s and lows in the 40's. Guess I have to pack lots of layers.

 

[Lamping3]

Veronica....I see you too have been MIA for a while! I am getting so overwhelmed.....I haven't been able to do much dising or trip planning lately because I have been running around doing other things......I can't believe we are almost there! I really need to get to packing!!!!

 

[MagicMomentsMom]

WOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO in a little over two days we're Disney bound! I'm a nervous wreck and I'm so ready for us to get on the plane and get this started GenevaClaire and I spent the whole day running around getting stuff we needed for the trip today--I ended up buying a Chico Capri stroller today instead of renting one--it fits her, it's lightweight, it was cheaper than renting one and easy to gate check and get thru the airport so it will hopefully work out at Disney She's still a little congested and pale, but coughing less and less, so hopefully she'll be ok. I've got med rx's for her ready to be filled if we need them while in FL. We (me and genevaClaire) got an early Christmas present today from my auntie--she bought us a laptopso now I can upload my pics each day and hopefully get on here and update and send pics to the grands It will help out alot here too, because I have to bargain with my 4 1/2 year old to use the computer, lol. Just need to pick up a wireless router when we get back from the trip or make sure Santa puts it on his list

I'm going to spend tomorrow getting the rest of everything organized, packed and checked off the list. Then the house picked up and cleaned up so we can come home to clean house. Get the kitty's food and stuff ready for my mom to take care of them, the dogs taken care of so my Dad can take care of them

Trying to make sure that I have everything I need printed from the DIS, Tourguide Mike and UG--

 

[Lamping3]

The chico stroller was one I considered before I found my graco...... That is so cool about the laptop....I bought 2 new memory cards just in case we needed them!

Are you guys still planning Tuskerhouse 12/6? We need to plan for a dismeet then if you still are. I know you had rearranged some of your ADRs but I wasn't sure.

3 more sleeps until it's time!

 

[MagicMomentsMom]

I'm packed, I'm packed Just a few things to throw in the checked bag on Tuesday morning and I'm all done Well now that I think of it I still have to pack the backpacks for the plane so I'm almost done, lol! TWO MORE SLEEPS

 

[2specialkids]
