A Long Day...


July 4, 2007 - Our day and night was relaxing. I was so proud of Christian. Christian is my 11 yr. old boy. He could of easily went somewhere else today but decided to stay home with his family. He was invited to several places but he wanted to be with us. He had so many fireworks because our family owns several firework stands in Kansas City. They were very generous to him.




Unfortunetly Kaylee got a nose bleed and we had to pack up and go to the E.R. @ Childrens Mercy Hospital. The 4th of July would have to wait. We arrived at 10:30 pm and were released at 3:00 am. Our next appt. was set for 9:00 am the same morning, but we had to reschedule because we were out til 4:00 am and KK (Kaylee) would not drink the dye that was necessary for the CT scan scheduled at 9:30 am. We decided along with nurses just to arrive at 12:30 pm and take it from there.


Christian had to pack up and go with grandma and Uncle Steve. He wasn't moaning or hollering as he usually would. He is worried about his sister. We all are.


We arrived at the hospital on time at 12:30, and they took Kaylee to radiology. We waited around for directions. They informed us that Kaylee would have to drink 30% oz. of dye and Kool Aid. I knew and so did Tammie that this would take hours if it took place at all. The staff decided to run a hose down her nose to her stomach. It worked but not before Kaylee got sick.


Tammie left at 4:15 to p/u Christian so he could make it to his 6:00 pm baseball game. I stayed with KK. Tam & Christian arrived right before the game was to start. Christian was to pitch but arrived too late so he didn't. We are all effected by this cancer.


My sister Kelly picked us up @ 6:00 pm and we went to Los Corrals for dinner. Kaylee had her usual all pork burrito with rice. She looked weak and was very tired. We got home at 8:00 ish. Our day was long but Friday is going to be tough.
