August 7, 2009


Today is a new day with less clouds in the sky and in my head. Deanna is going to have surgery at 4 pm or so to get a g tube or feed button as they are referred to. We spoke with the doctors this morning and have conferred that the best way for Deanna to get food is through this feed button. She is able to receive my milk through this tube, so I guess me and my "breast friend" will have more time together. Pray for quick recovery. She will be on a ventilator and ivs while the surgery takes place,but hopefully not for long. Poor girl, hasn't eaten all day yesterday while they studied her urine concentration and today she had food at 5 and 8 am, but nothing more until tomorrow morning.




Here are pictures from our stay at Children's Hospital. She had the ng tube taken out en route from Ft. Collins in the ambulance so the nurse let it stay out until her next feed (this was Wednesday).




Here are pictures from our stay at Children's Hospital. Below, these were taken last night in her new crib. She has since been taken off the oxygen and her ng tube is out again.

Hi Dear Ones,

I am glad Jami, that it seems the Lord gave you and Brian direction on where to go... it looks like Childrens! I pray for continued understanding and wisdom in your decision making. For rest and joy too, and for your boys as school starts.

love you, Kristin Semmens

Deanna is soooo lucky to have you guys as parents....It is obvious that you love her sooo much and want what is best for her. Sometimes God's plan for our children is not what we had in mind, but it makes us stronger people and it makes all of us realize how lucky we are to have healthy kids. You and your family are in my prayers and we pray for a quick recovery with Deanna!
