Sick Wife Update

Bri's been in bed since we left the hospital about 1:30 AM. Fortunately she hasn't vomited since then either. Her stomach still hurts, though not really as nauseous as it had been. She's been able to keep down some liquids, some bread, and a jello cup. She doesn't quite feel up to soup or anything like that yet.

I know a lot of people got freaked out when they heard we had to call paramedics. That basically came about because last night the only doctors open out here was the ER. I was going to take her but with all the dehydration and probably some hyper-ventilating, she wasn't able to stand. Her hands were clinched tight and her back couldn't straighten up (that part, I think, really worried her).

Thanks again to all you that are praying for her, please keep it up. She's had a little blood in her stool today, but from talking to our nurse sisters (Dani and Mandy), it's hopefully just from the irritation her body has gone through. I've been going in every 20 minutes or so to make her drink water. One good sign was when she started to give me attitude because I was bugging her. Pray that she doesn't regress tonight because she has come a long way today.

I love her. Thanks.
