Today we were visited by the head of the maternal fetal medicine department. The doctor spent almost an entire hour with us answering all of our questions and discussing our case. She is quite unbelievable and gives us just one more reason to feel lucky that we are being treated at this hospital.
Things were going so well this morning that we even got back on schedule with my once-a-day 30 minute wheelchair ride. Here's a shot of me talking to my mom, finding out how break-fast went last night. Wish we could have been there to visit with everyone!
Here's another shot of my live-in caretaker :).
And finally, here's a shot of all the beautiful flowers we've gotten. The docs say we have the best smelling room in the hospital!
To give you an example of how fast things can change around here, as soon as I had finished writing this, I had some issues with bleeding. Apparently, when a person ruptures her membranes, the placenta can pull away and cause a person to bleed. At the moment it's under control, but the doctors are watching my bleeding very closely. If it progresses it can turn into a complete placental abruption, which nobody really wants. It is, to put it mildly, a bit scary when the bleeding occurs. So, if any of you have time on your side or extra prayers to lend, please pray that my bleeding subsides.
Thanks,
Debbie and Rich
