Lastest News about the Birthday Boy =)

Sorry that I haven't taken the time to update this blog in a while, but I do have to admit that it was easier in Houston to get it done. I have a lot more things pulling me in many directions when I am at home.

Kyle jumped back into work too soon. Not that going to work was bad-- just working eight hours a day was not wise. By Friday, he was exhausted and his incision started to leak every so often a clear liquid. He was unable to sleep all Saturday night because the leak was now a gush. He and I went to the emergency room Sunday morning and finally at 4:30 p.m. he was admitted to the hospital. Surgery was scheduled for early Monday morning to stop the leak and add a few drains. He has been in ICU since then because they are the only floor that deals with drains. He has a major headache and is very nauseous, but is doing well. Hopefully, the drains will come out Thursday or Friday. He wants to be home in time for Alyssa's Mission Farewell on Sunday. I'm sure that he will be there.

Today is Kyle's 49th birthday. We are so glad that he is here with us and pray that we can share many more birthdays with him in the years to come.

Back to work...

I was able to go back to work today, feels good to be feeling more normal. I know everyone is surprised to see me back so soon, but what can I say, prayers are answered. I know this. I have seen so many miracles in my life this past year, how can I deny them. My head is still a little swollen and sore, and still a little nauseated, but can push through it. Thanks again for the support, thoughts, prayers on my behalf and my family. I truly do appreciate it. It was nice to get home to see my youngest boys go to Jr. Prom :) Even though they fought it. Its not their favorite thing to do. But they seemed to have a fun time.
