Praise the Lord

Well the doctors were getting ready to do Aubrey's second spinal tap, but the doctor decided to recheck the test results form the first test. After looking at them again she realized that the results had been read wrong and that Aubrey doesn't have meningitis. Praise God. She still has a rare blood infection and a rare case of the flu. This is still dangerous for such a small child but she has been on meds since the beginning so things are looking good. She will still be in the hospital for another couple days. Continue praying that she will get over the flu and that the blood infection will be gone. Also pray that there will not be any side effects from any of the medications that Aubrey has been on. We are so thankful that she doesn't have meningitis and that they found out before putting this poor baby through another spinal. Thanks to everyone for all their prayer and love for my niece and family during this time.

God is always in control






Wow these past few weeks have been crazy! So I am still waiting to go in to get more test results to find out why my hands are numb, but at least a lot of things have been ruled out! Then on November 4th my niece Aubrey was born. She is absolutely beautiful and of course made me want a girl! =) Well she was put back into the hospital on November 7th because she had lost so much weight. After she was in there they started testing for many different things not knowing if it was meningitis, blood disease, kidney or liver problems, or a urinary tract infection. It came back that it was a blood infection (disease) that was causing the problems. So all of us were thrilled knowing what was going on and that it could be treated. Well just today we hear that it is a rare form of meningitis that is connected with the blood disease. We are not really sure what this means, except that they are sending her in for another spinal tap, and a CT Scan to check for any brain damage or fluid build-up. They will also be rechecking her hearing as well as doing other tests to check for any damage. We pray that this next spinal will come back clear and that Aubrey will become a healthy little girl.
