WOW-EEE!!! What a shock this last week has been! As Stacey said, I'm in the ICU at the hospital in Rock Springs. I haven't been feeling too good for a while now, and I guess this is why! A Dr. at the insta-care diagnosed me with Diabetes Tues night with a blood sugar of 350 (it's supposed to be between 80 & 120), sent me home with insulin pills, and told me to go to the lab the next day and get my blood drawn and tested. I didn't make it through the night. About 3:30 AM I couldn't breath and couldn't stand up. Dan rushed me over to the ER and my blood sugar was 600. I don't remember much about that night or the next day. Appearantly I was pretty loopy, and pretty funny. I kept telling the nurses I was in Jackson, they didn't find it very funny... Anyway, we've been working to get the blood sugars leveled out so I can go home, but it's a bit harder than we all expected. They are keeping me in the ICU because I'm very sensitive to any changes in the glucose levels. They're saying it's Type I Diabetes, so I get to have all the fun giving myself injections 4-5 times a day! YIPEEE!!!!
I'm just thankful it's nothing worse... this is totally do-able..

Thanks for the kind words, and all the prayers. I need them, and I can definatly feel them!
Love you all!
Steph

Stephanie

So those of you how have not heard Stephanie had to go to the hospital last night and was put in the ICU because she was diagnosed with diabetes and the doctors were trying to regulate it. When my dad talked to Dan he said that she was doing a little better today but she is still in the ICU.

Grandpa's surgery

Since many did not know that grandpa was going into surgery, I thought that there would probably be more who may not have seen facebook. Grandpa's back was not healing up it had a pocket that had infection still in it and was not getting better. So they had to have a plastic surgeon go into his back again and scrape out the scar tissue to hopefully help it heal all the way up. The surgery went very well and he was up and talking afterwards, his stats were even better after the surgery then before. Just keep him and grandma in your prayers.

Tyson's Baptism

Tyson was baptized September 19th, at Crane's beach in Ipswich, MA. It was a wonderful day! We missed being able to have the rest of our extended family there though. I included many other pictures and details on my blog-check it out. I hope everyone is doing well. We miss everyone tons! Keep in touch!

Happy Birthday Aaron!

I am a day late, but I had to let everyone know about Aaron's birthday.
And about his leg. So he broke his leg playing church ball. He broke the smaller bone down near the ankle, it is a spiral break going up the bone about 1 1/2 inches and tore all the legiments off the ankle. He had surgery on June 5th. They put in a 10in. plate and 8 screws. He can't walk on it for 8 weeks (so 6 more to go). It has been tough for him but he is adjusting. He is really bummed he is going to miss out on all the fun water activities this summer.
