Princess Fiona Returns!



I apologize for not updating the blog for a while since Gabi's surgery. Life gets a little crazier over the weekends. Gabi had her surgery yesterday afternoon and Mommy and I stayed here til late Friday Night. I was unable to go pick Gracie Girl up but luckily Big Mike works for daddy's company so he was able to drive over and pick Gracie up and drop her off with Mema and Papa. Gracie is camping with Mema and Papa in the Toy Hauler in Lawrence, so we got up super early to go swimming and have lunch with Gracie and the rest of the family. We are back up at the hospital but Micah has her 10 year class reunion that she wants to at least make an appearance. So if you can't tell we are constantly on the go!

Not much to report about Gabi other than she is retaining a ton of fluid. She is back to our little princess Fiona again! haha. She has still be peeing ok, still not enough, and her chest output is still down. Heart Rate is good, Kidneys's are still very sick but not as bas as they have been. They have given her some stronger pain medicene yesterday and today due to the surgery but she is off of her adavan and methadone completely, so that is good news.

We really need every one to say some strong prayers for Isabella and her parents. We saw them in the hall today, and they said they didn't have a very good day. They had a more serious discussion with the cardiology team in regards to "if" they make it out of here. On th positive side for her she has been gaining weight!

So everyone keep doing the pee pee dance and if you don't know how the song goes it's very easy..."Gabi go pee pee....Gabi go pee pee....Gabi go pee pee....pee pee...pee pee pee"

Thank you so much to everyone, it means so much that you have been with us through this entire journey. For those of you that have not been keeping track...you have been following along for the last 53 straight days! Man that is a record I really don't want to see how big we can get!

Love,
Jason, Micah, Gracie (waterbug), Gabi (Princess Fiona)

She certainly does look very swollen in these pictures. Shiney and tight, but hopefully it's just because she had surgery, and now that her kidneys are doing better, she will quickly get rid of all that excess fluid. I am glad she is doing good.

What? No references to any movies????
