Ellie's birthday was April 7th and she and I planned a party for Friday, April 9th. That morning I had an appt. for a ct scan on my stomach. My friend Heather watched the kids for me while Allen and I went to LDS hospital for my appt. I don't remember everything about that morning. When we got their I felt like passing out and they had to get a wheel chair and wheel me back as I bobbed in and out of consciousness. My blood pressure was 54/25, borderline dead! That was the day that I was sent upstairs and admitted to the ICU. I now feel horrible because I missed Ellie's birthday party, but at the time I had no idea it was even going on. Mom and Heather stepped in and did an awesome job. Mom went and picked up a Hello Kitty cake and did all the finishing preparations.
Here they are playing ring around the rosies. My parents were a nervous wreck as they waited to hear what was going on with me.

I am so sorry I missed your party Ellie, I know Grandma did an awesome job and I think I have made up for it with all our Mommy and Ellie time we have had lately. I love you and I love how much you have helped me. You are such a sweet girl and daddy and I are so proud of you and all you do.

You are lucky to have such a good support system around you. I'm sure Ellie missed having you there but is happy with how good you are doing now. Love you. T
