Good News & Not so Good News

Monday’s big hopes of being able to possible go home were quickly shot down after another round of tests. At this point I am here until B2 decides to come...my mom brought me a calendar and according to the calendar and what our doctors are saying no longer then Feb 2nd. Only10 weeks, much better than the thought of my due date. Although not the news I wanted, we have started to adjust to accepting it as what it is, as in normal Amber style I have started to make lists of what needs to be done and what I can be doing and so forth ;-)




BUT the best news, I get to see my sweet little girl now. Due to the H1N1 and being in the high risk area, the rules said no children. First with my sweet hubby's fast & sweet talking ways, he got me wheel chair privileges to leave my room for 30 min a day to see her. But then some rules changed and if she had her H1N1shot, she could come to my room. I was quickly on the phone finding a shot, Sandpoint Pediatrics had the shot, but would not hold one for us to get her back up there (seriously, not too happy). BUT for some miracle of a way, my mom just happens to mention to my Aunt Jenni about the shot, and the doc office across the hall happen to have the shot on Tuesday...she ran over and asked if they had one for Saige and they said they did now, bring her in. So now she can come and see me as much as possible. She has no clue what is going on but none the less was her usual spunky little self...seeing her be SAIGE made things so much better.



I know I always say sisters are the BESST, because well they are: After Andy and Marci took Saige for her H1N1 on Tuesday, they made a little detour to the Airport...you got it, Tara flew in to be with us for a few days. The wonderful hospital were Tara is a resident said she could take a few days off but with the holiday week, getting a ticket was whole other issue but her good friend Ben Ward gave her miles so she could get here, is that not one of the nicest things. I am beyond thankful, having her to explain things even more to me and her support and opinion has helped enormously. Being an ob resident doctor she knows the medicine but she also knows me, which makes such a difference. I am also such a proud sister and tell all our doctors that my sister is an ob doctor too LOL!!
In a nutshell, we are adjusting to life in a bed.

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!! Love Amber
