This is getting ridiculous...

I'm sure many of you are probably wondering what it is that I feel is so RIDICULOUS. I promise I will get to that but first, prayers are needed.

Logan Jack's received another open heart surgery on Thursday and is still recovering in the hospital. The doctors see now that he has an effusion (thanks to his parents paying close attention to Logan's symptoms!! GREAT JOB STEF AND RYAN!!!) This may extend Logan's hospital stay to an extra 3-4 days. Please pray that he gets better and also say some prayers that his big brother Wyatt is doing well in school despite the constant worries of his little brother. They have a special bond with eachother so I'm sure he's very concerned. My thoughts and prayers are with you Stef, Ryan, Wyatt and Logan....get better soon!!! If you would like to stop by Logan's blog page to give them some words of encouragement, or just to let them know you're thinking about them, the site is www.whenlifehandsyouabrokenheart.blogspot.com


Derrick Carter is also having surgery, but his is today. Derrick is a very special little guy and he's ADORABLE as well!!! We are sending our thoughts and prayers to you all as well and hoping that D's surgery is a success and that he recovers quickly!! To visit Derrick's page, please go to www.carolinacarters.blogspot.com and leave them a message. Good Luck baby D and we are thinking about you today!!!

So, onto this ridiculousness I was speaking off earlier......Ryan is sick AGAIN!!! I'm so irritated about this whole situation I feel like ripping my hair out. She was on 4 different meds for a grand total of 35 days. Once on each med for about 3 days, she seemed great. No more cough or runny nose or anything. Her last medication ended just 2 days ago, and last night, the runny nose started. She woke up this morning with the runny nose continuing and she is having trouble breathing. I am not going to bother taking her back to the peds office just yet because she is scheduled with the ear, nose and throat specialist tomorrow morning up at the hospital. I am hoping and praying that he will schedule her to have tubes put in her ears so I can stop having to take her to the peds and we can keep her off the antibiotics. This is her 2nd ear infection since May but both of them lasted a month or more. The last one caused her to be on meds for 30 days, and this one, 35 days. I hope the doctor makes the right decision. I will keep everyone posted as to if/when Ryan will be scheduled for surgery. Thanks for the support!!! It's time to watch "Happy Feet" again, so I gotta run!!! :)

  1. Ahhh Alisha! Sorry to hear that Ryan isn't feeling 100% again! I know it's frustrating when our little one's keep getting sick. Hopefully the docs will listen and get tubes in.

    Enjoy Happy Feet! It's one of my favs :-)

    Always,
