Out With September

  . . . & what a way to leave it. As many of you know yesterday was a tough day. We had come back to Mac Town to take care of some things @ home & we were sitting at the table paying some bills & the phone rang. Nowadays I have my phone attatched to my body in case we get a call from Children's Mercy, & we did. I knew right away something wasn't right, and she asked me where we were. They didn't think Lizzy would make it much longer, and they were afraid we wouldn't make it up here in time. They thought she was going into kidney failure. . . . she pretty much stopped peeing & all of her numbers went crazy. I'm still trying to figure out the numbers, it's hard to understand all of them. So we jumped in the car and flew over here. We started asking people to pray for Lizzy, and I think nearly everyone we knew was praying for her. By the time we got here she was doing much better, she had wet her pants through to the bed, her renal ultrasound came back unremarkable ( which means they didn't find anything unusual ) and they were able to start turning down the oxygen.
     The Doc stopped by to explain it all to us. . . . most of it seemed to be in another language, but he said she was doing much better & that he wasn't sure which thing they had done that fixed it. I'm certain that it was the praying. Once again Lizzy has been rescued by prayers.
   . . . .  so this morning shortly after we got here, they came by on the usual morning rounds, and he told us she looked like a new baby, so we've had her another day. Now she is sacked out with her little bear by her side wearing her yellow ribbon and doing the occasional hand wave to nobody in particular. . . perhaps she's doing a signal to Olly who is 10 feet away also sacked out laying on Daddy's chest. . . .Maybe they have a special kind of communication that we know nothing about. We are just hanging out with the lil ladies today. Today they are both doing fabulous. . . .
  & once again we thank  you all. I'm quite convinced theses little girls are everybodies little girls :) So to you all, have a lovely weekend, remember not to run around at too great of a speed, & stop to smell the flowers.
    Love to you all, J & S & Olly & Lizzy
