BRIGHTER SKIES ARE WITH US

We are day three with casts and we are all learning to deal with them. After hours of crying on Friday I called the ortho office where the nurse exclaimed "I told him he should have given you Valium for her"! So off to the pharmacy we went and things are somewhat more bearable with Valium on board. Sleep came a bit more easier to us last night, but we were still up every 1.5-2 hours. Currently, we are at Panera so I can wifi and the girls are enjoying their muffin tops. Lying low for the rest of the day. Tomorrow is church and then we are going to watch our local Christian Band "Sanctus Real" play a benefit concert for Extreme Makeover Home Edition, which is in town this wknd for a local family. We are praying that every day Bree's pain improves and her vibrant personality returns.

It sounds as though Life is improving. That is wonderful!!

I love the coordinating dress and nail polish. How cute. Lily loves to have her toe nails painted and the brighter the pink color the better!

Bree should enjoy getting out and about tomorrow. It will keep her mind focused on different things.
Hopefully you guys can get a nap or two in this weekend. You have to be absolutely exhausted.
I will keep my fingers crossed for a more restful night tonight.
Take care and enjoy your weekend!

Love and prayers,
Donna, Patrick and Lily

BLESS THAT PRECIOUS LITTLE GIRL!!! What a doll...and WHAT A SMILE!!! She has no way of knowing these "bad ole days" will become "wonderful good days ahead." So glad she has some relief for her discomfort through meds now. She's a trooper!! Know I'm praying for Bree...and for your family. I've followed your journey (but am just learning how to do THIS.) Thank you for being there for Vicki, Emily, AND for Christy.
