July 10, 9:30 pm, Not yet :(

Short answer is not yet. Hopefully the vent will come out in the morning. They started up the blood thinner earlier today but then her internal bleeding started up again so they stopped it. She has been in quite a bit of pain today. Basically everyone is celebrating her condition except her! She is pretty miserable. Her head, chest, neck, bottom, and throat all hurt. She wants the vent out. She coughs a lot and that is pretty painful with a breathing machine shoved down her throat.

So right now I have the night shift. I'm rubbing her legs, head and lumbar back. We are watching Toy Story 3. Stacy and kids are at the RMH. Let's have a good night, no bleeding, open lungs, good pressures, and some sleep. Your jokes are good but not good enough it get a smile out of the princess.

Need to get back to work.
Daddy

You don't know me, but I've been following your story and praying for you. (We share the same cousins).
Here's one that made me giggle today...

What did the flags say to each other?

Nothing, they just waved.

Hang in there Princess (and Daddy)!! You have a lot of people praying for you!! Just remember that Jesus has felt the pain and frustrations you are feeling and he will give you the strength to get through them! We love you Lindsey! And we can't wait to take you to Lake Powell again!!

And Jas, I've said it a million times... But you are an absolutely incredible dad! I am so grateful Lindsey has you there with her! You are so strong and so tender at the same time. I'm so proud of how well you are handling everything in stride. We sure love you!!

Why did the stoplight turn red?

Wouldn't you if you had to change in front of all those people?

Love you sweet Lindsey. Prayers for the tube coming out soon.

A guy goes to see the doctor. He's got a pea in one nostril, a grape in the other, and a string bean stuck in his ear. He said to the doctor, “I don’t feel good.”
The doctor replies, “The problem is clear to me. You’re not eating right!”

Oh Jason I am so sorry. I'm telling you hearing that she is in pain just really bothers me. I hope they can get that under control. Do they know why she is bleeding internally? You guys are in my thoughts and prayers constantly. You and Stacy are so amazing. What a wonderful thing you are doing by being by her side each and every night. And I am so impressed with Stacy...one foot in front of the other....thinking ahead and getting her CA nursing license. WOW!! That just blew me away. Keep on keeping on....

Sweet Lindsey I prayed again that the pain would continue to drop to a 1 and that your spirits would gradually find comfort and happiness. Everone is celebrating for your positive steps and we pray that you'll gain strength through our prayers!! Love you lil Princess Lindsey Lou!
Jason and Stacy you both continue to amaze and inspire not only myself, but so many people around the world. More people are turning to the Heavenly Father and becoming more faithful because of your families journey, maybe thats also part of that bigger picture!!
Lindsey Lou hope you enjoy your rainbows today and are blessed with more positive steps forward and praying that today will be the day your body is ready for the vent to come out! We will celebrate almost like Sierra's ZERO dance! Xoxoxoxo
