Improving

Audrey is continuing to improve today. I'm staying with her tonight so she won't wake up scared. She had a rough morning yesterday so I don't want them doing anything foolish because they don't know Audrey's special little ways. Shannon and I were having a pity party earlier today about how unfair this situation is and how are Christmas may be dappened once again this year and then suddenly reality struck in the PICU.......two children died here today. That's two families that will probably experience their most difficult Christmas ever after burying their child. This puts things in perspective and you quickly realize that someone always has it worse than you. There is not really a good way to describe the anxiety and loss of control you experience when you have severely ill child, but it can't compare to the loss of that child. So I'm feeling thankful this early morning that my little girl is improving and that God is watching over her. Take nothing for granted.........hug your little ones a little tighter today.
