T+151 Farewell, Cowboy DaNNY

Today our angel friend, Cowboy DaNNY, was laid to rest in his hometown of Lakefield, Minnesota.
We took a few moments to say a prayer for Danny, and for his family to find peace and strength in the days ahead.

Torie had to be re-admitted to the hospital today because her CSA level was REALLY high. We just got her most recent level back and it is coming down nicely. She's doing great and she'll probably be able to go home in the morning. It's much different being here. I've been able to catch up with some of my night-shift girls, and Torie finally got to meet Kati, our monthly Santa Claus! Kati took such good care of us when we were in Minnesota. She sent cards and candy, blankets and books, presents and prizes, stickers and Starbucks, and love and support. And she wasn't the only one! Another plus...the chair-beds are way more comfortable. We truly are blessed.

Today is our friend Joseph's very merry 6-month Un-Birthday. Unfortunately, he has to celebrate it in the hospital, so please send him some happy thoughts and prayers that he will be able to go back to Ronald McDonald House soon. Again, thanks for checking in! Vic-Torie!

  2. So sorry that you are back in the hospital... hope this is a short stay. Si only has a few days left of his CSA so hopefully all will be well. He does have another infusion on Friday for the antibodies. I guess ya'll just miss the attention to much... :) I also love the picture, so would Cowboy Danny! Looks just like a tractor he would of loved. We will always miss our dear sheriff and his family will always be in our prayers. Hope to see ya in Aug... if we come :* Lots of love sent to you dear princess. Get out of the hospital soon, Grandma doesn't like the chair bed that much (although I think she has us fooled :).

    Hugs and kisses,
    Bestest triplet friend

  3. Torie,

    Sorry to hear you're back in the hospital but they will take good care of you so you can go back home. I'm not sure what CSA is but they'll get it handled.

    You looked really cool on the tractor!

    Love,
    Aunt Lettie

  4. How's the TV there, Torie? Don't stay long, because you have a pretty polka-dot room at home. We're thinking of you all of the time. Lots of love!
