Some friends we met in the church own a beach house in Santa Cruz. They offered their vacation house to us for the night since we were all together. We thought this would be good fun for our family, and give us a place to stay other than the one bedroom RMH. So we packed for the night, and heading out in the big red suburban. We were planning on spending the afternoon in the Santa Cruz vacation home and coming back tomorrow.
Then we got a call from the heart doctors.... Her bladder infection is getting worse and they want to admit her........today....
So, with an awkward silence in Big Red, we turned around. Stacy dropped Sierra and I off here at the hospital. Then she took the rest of the kids swimming. They will be back later this evening. Sierra will be getting IV antibiotics to combat the bacteria that is growing and getting worse. They are saying she will be on IV's for at least 2 days.
Yes, we are all very bummed. We all know she will be fine. We are still planning on coming home around August 19, but this would have been a well needed trip for our family. A fun, simple, and close place to go before I leave Tuesday afternoon with the 4 younger kids to Oregon. This would have also been the first time Stacy and I could have our own room since May 5!!! (That is not an exaggeration)
Anyway, enough pitty party. The nurse is currently putting in the IV. Sierra has a good attitude. Kids are excited to be going swimming. Hope to get of the hospital on Wednesday.
Till next time,
Jason

Well, dang!
PRAYIN FOR YA'ALL
Just a little hiccup. Sorry your plans had to change. You'll will be back home together before you know ir.
Santa Cruz is a great place. You should consider going whale watching while you are all down here! My favorite Whale Watching company is called Blue Ocean Whale Watch and they are another 30 min past Santa Cruz in the fishing harbor at Moss Landing. It is so worth doing, especially living in Eastern Oregon (I grew up in Baker City.). www.blueoceanwhalewatch.com. i have been following your families story for a while. Even though I dont really know you, you feel like family. the Oregon connection and now being in CA....hearing your stories of health and home.
