hey its Shannon here. my mom asked me to post an update so here it is. Rachel has a blood clot in her leg, so the doctors are giving her blood thinner.. she still has the breathing tube however she has not had a fever for almost 24 hours! yay! At the very minimum, she will be out of the hospital next weekend!!!She is quite the trooper!!!
Brad and I had the wonderful opportunity to go visit our lil sis yesterday! I missed her!!! what a amazing time I had! I never knew how much I loved her til all this happened and I know I will not be mean to her because I really do love her. I had the hardest time yesterday walking in the room and seeing her laying there strapped down to the table so helpless. just walking in I got teary eyed. She is sedated I think thats what its called, anyways I anxiously awaited for her to wake up and when she did I held her hand and talked to her. It was so sad that she couldn't talk back. It was so sad when the nurses were working on her. I started crying but I didn't want Rach to see me sad so i tried to hold myself together. I did her hair for her!!We talked to her and she wanted to tell us something so we got her typing board thingy and it took a while but she finally got the message " Can i call emma?" That made me teary eyed. Emma is in the family that I babysit for. She had appendicidis a while back. She also asked to call Cheyenne one of her best friends. We were there for a while on Friday night, but I'll tell you, it was one of the best fridays ever because I got to spend it with my sister who I missed so much! When we told her we had to go she started crying which made me cry! my mom said she has never cried before! it was so sad. I have been being "the mommy" around here! its been quite the challenge trying to fill in my mom's shoes with cleaning and trying to keep peace around here! I never knew how much my mom does for me! I LOVE YOU MOM!! and DAD!! you guys do so much for us and I am really grateful for it! People in our ward have been so kind and thoughtful and It means alot to me to know so many people care THANKS!!!!! We have also had alot of family call, thanks for being concerned. WE love you guys and we couldn't do it without you!!!
WE LOVE YOU RACHEL!!! GET BETTER SOON! WE MISS YOU!!!!
