It seems like so much has happened lately. Especially since the last time I blogged! All the kids had their birthdays and I never blogged about it. Oh well, I will hopefully blog about it later :)
We just came home on Wednesday from Disney World. It was great and I will blog about it later. Right now I am going to blog about the crazy week we are still having. Right now Bryson is in the hospital. It really stinks because I can't be up there with him since no one in my family will drive here so I can be with him. Brian is with him right now. It all started on Monday when Bryson starting throwing up. It was awful. We thought it was the flu. Then a few hours before we were leaving, Bailey, Bella and I started throwing up. Not fun when you have to get on a plane! Anyway, we made it home with Bella covered in puke and Bryson covered in the worst blow out I have ever seen! Needless to say no one was happy with us on the plane. But who cares as I will never see those people again. As you can tell, I am not in a good mood. No sleep for several days and beyond stressed will do that to you. So, I was very concerned for Bryson since he was the sickest. I took him to the doctor right away and the doctor thought he had Salmonella poisoning. Well, she was wrong. I kept calling the doctor and finally on Saturday I called them and told them I was taking him to Children's Hospital. He was extremely dehydrated and the doctor immediately diagnosed him with Rotovirus. They started him on IV fluids for the next 4 hrs and then they took x-rays since he was in so much pain. Well, his stomach and intestines were all twisted and the doctor thought they were going to have to do emergency surgery on him. They thought his bowel had elapsed inside itself and if they didn't do surgery right away he could die. Nice thing to hear at 11:30 at night over the phone from Brian. Like I said, I couldn't be there since I had no one to watch the kids. Bailey was just getting over the flu. Fortunately they were able to get an ultrasound right away that showed it was not that bad. Thank goodness, but they still were very concerned about him. He had 18 dirty diapers yesterday!! 18!! That is absurd. Anyway, his sugars and potassium were going crazy and he was not responding to anything. Thank the Lord that finally at 6:30 tonight he was starting to come around. My neighbor came over for about an hour and a half to watch the girls so I could go up there and give Brian some new clothes since he ended up throwing up and getting sick up there with the horrible smell and the stress of everything. Bryson should be home tomorrow and I can't wait to see him. The hardest thing I ever had to do was to leave him tonight. He was crying and calling for me, but yet no tears could come because of the dehydration. I cried all the way to my car.
So, that is my crazy week that I will hopefully never have to repeat again. I will try to blog later about the actual fun we had at Disney!!
