A-Z about me

Well it's been one heck of a week. Let's just say I've ridden in an ambulance now and thought my husband might pass out on me several times...I've never been so scared in my life. So guess where I am right now? The lovely hospital again. We just love it so much, we can't get away for more than a couple days at a time until we have to come back again. This time we're in ICU. Hopefully moving to the oncology floor again tomorrow with all our friends... (aka nurses that we know so well). In all seriousness, Kyle got an infection over the weekend which can happen very easy when his counts are low from the chemo. They've been pumping him with antibiotics, fluids, blood pressure medicine, etc. He's getting better and stronger every day.

SO, he's snoozing and I'm blogging. I saw this A-Z thing and so due to my boredom, you all get to read A-Z about me:

  1. Oh Mekelle, I am so sorry that Kyle is in the ICU! Hopefully his white blood cell count will get back up soon and he'll fight this infection off before we know it. I hope he gets transferred to the floor tomorrow!

    Wow I can't believe you've been skydiving in Hawaii. If I were to go skydiving, I'd also want to go somewhere scenic.

  3. I would have been so scared too! Glad that he is doing better now.

    And I am freaking out that you've been skydiving. Just a few days ago, I declared that the one thing that I would never do. You are one tough chica!

  6. Thinking about you and Kyle!

    I definitely knew your "unique fact" about dolphins. Remember when we used to sign our notes in middle school w/ symbols? Mine was a butterfly. HA!
