This is a public "diary" of a family whose little girl started a battle with inoperable cancer in April 2005. In December 2007 our house burned down. And in September 2009 Mommy was diagnosed with a terminal disease (a genetic form of ALS) that took her to Heaven in July, 2011, leaving Daddy and two young girls to make it on their own. Over several years of ups and downs, you will get into our hearts, minds and souls as we share joys and sorrows. It can sometimes be very difficult to read. We hope it is also uplifting.

Everything was going so well.

Everything was going along so well.  Rebekah was getting some energy back and up and walking a little bit.  That is where the problem came up.  She decided to go for a walk only her IV pole and feeding bag didn’t go with her.  We ended up with an awful mess as she pulled her feeding tube out of her stomach and abdomen and stomach “stuff” when everywhere.  

We couldn’t get any help with Sarah in an emergency so daddy is home with Sarah and mommy is heading to the hospital emergency room with Rebekah.  Stay tuned for further updates.

So far wood party tomorrow is still on.  The doctor on the phone said they could probably put another feeding tube in at the emergency room and send her home tonight still.  Will let you know if anything changes.

Hopefully it will be simple and they can be home shortly. I'll plan on seeing you in the morning unless I hear others.

At St. Jude once a child with a central line attached to an IV pole dashed out of the elevator just before the doors closed, leaving her mom, a nurse, and the IV pole behind.

It was a mess, with many people traumatized, but they got her all fixed up.

We pray they get Rebekah fixed up pronto.
