Grandma and Staci

Hey Hey Hey!

We had a bit of a scare recently. Mom Walker called to tell us that they were taking WahWah to the hospital, she was in a lot of pain. They called us later to inform us that she was going into surgury, she had kinked intestines!! OUCH. The doctor said anyone else would have been in a month ago, go figure that Tough Grandma waited as long as she could. They took her in and cut her open, fixed the kink and then decided to leave her "open" (did not sew her up) and also she remained in a coma for three days. I think it was because they did not want to have to put her back under if something went wrong, plus the pain was pretty intense. On Monday, they brought her out of the coma and she has been doing better. A little loopy, which is to be expected, but she seems to be getting stronger each day. That is one tough lady.

Speaking of TOUGH, Staci (our little cousin who has spinabifedia) had to go to surgury on Tuesday due to her scoliosis. She had a metal rod insterted into her back. Praise the Lord that she is doing better, although the pain MUST be very intense, she is strong as she is cute, which means, stronger than any one person I know!! We will keep you updated.

Jett went home this past weekend to go to his 10 year reunion, and was able to visit both Staci and Grandma in the hospital. It is tough on us to be so far away from the family, when something like this comes up.. It was good for Jett to have the opportunity to check up on them.

Lucky for us, he brought Kelsey back to spend a week and a half with us! IT should be very entertaining to have her with us, we miss that kiddo :)

Hope this finds each of you well and happy!
Love
