Little Dove went to the Emergency Room

It is 1 a.m. now Wednesday, and we just returned from the emergency room.
My Sweet Dove took a bit of a turn for the worse. Without much fever she developed abdominal cramps that became severe. I took her in around 10 p.m. and I was called right into a bed for her. They set and IV and began a drip. They sent blood work to the lab. The medication for the pain and nausea was also given. She was such a trooper. It was a wonderful team of women who helped me with her. The nurse tended to the IV while her aide helped her and a psychologists helped me with Dove emotionally avoiding a panic attack. It was the best Sensory Integration Dysfunction care we have received. They were aware of the condition and the needs that it posed and it was startling .They were great! They used a book to distract and explained everything as they went. We were a well oiled team. I as the Mother was a player and a part of the whole. Great job they did.
Dove has a possibility of a condition that caused all her intestinal "good bacteria" to die off and so we need a stool sample and to take it to the Pediatrician tomorrow asap. She may of had the virus that Dash had but we are not sure. She may have a urinary tract infection and they are running a 72 hour culture and will contact me. She really perked up with the IV and the Medication that eased the nausea and pain. I have an Rx to fill for that medication in the morning.
Wow I am so wound up.
She was so brave.
God is so good to us to be able to get her the help she needed.

Please pray for Our Little Dove.

Oh my goodness. Our prayers are with little Dove. I pray she is going to be alright. It's great that the hospital knew what to do and how to handle everything with such caring and skilled way.

Thank you so much for all of your support, you and Jaye are such nice friends.

Poor Dove! Just wanted to let you know we've been praying for you both at our house, Donetta. I'm so glad you got a medical team who gave her such excellent care and I hope she is feeling much better very soon!

Older women likewise teach the younger women...

• how to love their husbands
• how to love their children
• how to be self-controlled
• how to be pure
• how to be keepers at home
• how to be kind and submissive (not subservient) to their own husbands. (See Titus 2:3-5)

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

  • A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
  • The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
  • Return with Honor
  • The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
  • "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
  • “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
  • "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
  • "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
