Vacation
Well it seems to be the trend that our most popular vacation spot is at loyola hospital- one of the best things about our vacation spot is the view of the downtown Chicago skyline. What we wouldn't give for the view of the beach ;)!
On a more serious note Brent came up for an appt yesterday because his blood pressure has been running high for the last week and a half. They ended up admitting him because they don't have a real good concrete reason as to why it spiked recently. They did give a couple things that it could be but right now they are just trying to get the pressure back down to normal. It has lowered some today but continues to spike ever once in awhile as well. He has had an increase in his headaches today to the point of nausea and the lights are bothering him at times. They have given him some meds to help with those things but they are slow acting and it takes patience for them to kick in.
Right now the out look is to get discharged tomorrow as long as his blood pressure stays down, headaches get better and his nausea goes away. Through all of this the dr.s have looked at his lungs and they are looking good, so we are thankful for that!
Please continue to pray for comfort for Brent, wisdom & knowledge for the dr's, strength for Brent & I to get through this and that we will continue to have the grace to lean on God! We know He is in complete control of all of this and we just need to lean/ trust in Him. Thanks so much for all the love,prayer and support as always we appreciate them more than words can say! Also thanks to those back home taking care of our Diesel! We miss him terribly when we are away but we know he is having a blast on his vacation too!:)
Also want o put a shout out to my sister who's birthday is today! We love you tons! Thanks for being such an awesome supportive sister!!!
