Craziness in life

Sometimes life just throws everything at you at once.

Evan and I went to Texas this last weekend for his Peepaw's 90th birthday. I completely love Evan's Peepaw. He is just too cute (see photo to the right). We had a wonderful time and really hated leaving when it was time to go. We left a day early so we could go and pick up our dogs. Before we left Evan was coming down with something and it just continued to get worse. Evan had to call off work on Tuesday. We live in the middle of nowhere so Evan had to get a doctor's appointment in a town fifty miles away. Evan had to call off on Wednesday so he could go to the doctor appt. at 8:30 in the morning. Well that story was to tell you this one.

I read my myspace account and found out that a friend of mine is on life support at an LA hospital and is not likely to survive. She has a disease that she has been fighting for about six years and it is finally taking her over. She has scleroderma, a disease that makes the sink tighten or harden and the disease can and has spread to her lungs. The doctors think she possible got an infection that cause severe damage to her lungs. She is on the lung transplant list but for the transplant she will need to be health enough to survive it. We are all hoping for the best but brassing for the worst. Please keep her in your prayers.
One more thing...
Today we found out that Evan's cousin Shawn and his wife Nicole had some big problems today. Nicole, who was pregnant and due April 15th, had to have an emergency C-section. She developed preeclamsia and the doctors had to take the baby as soon as possible. The baby was born and weight 2lbs 7 ozs. and 15 inches long. Her name is Emolyn Kate Thompson. Her lungs are working great and she doesn't require oxygen. Now Shawn and Nicole have to wait for the time when they can take her home from the hospital. Nicole will be able to go home in four days.
All this hit us in just a few days. Evan and I are both in low spirits right now and need some pick me ups.
Well tomorrow is Saturday and maybe we can just sit and relax and just be this weekend.
