Macy Gueldner – Written by her mother, Mary Catherine about 1 A.M.
Macy is on the way to the hospital. She has a fever of 103.5 and is vomiting. She was shaking uncontrollably, like she did when she had viral sepsis, but she settled down after a few minutes. Her eyes are not focusing like normal and are crossing more than usual, but we know from experience that it’s caused from the high fever.
I’m fairly certain that this is a stomach virus, but even something as simple as this can become serious because she is immunocompromised.
I wish the four of us could live in a bubble for the next 8 months, until all of this is over.
David Wickham – The surgery was lengthy as expected. A chemo bath of the entire stomach area was done as part of the process. Let’s pray for David, Cissy, and other family members as they attend to David’s needs as he recovers and heals from surgery.
Jane Wickham – David’s sister is having some issues with her knee again.
(Written yesterday) My knee was doing so good. It was fine for church drove to New Orleans. Last night it swelled it hurts to bend it or just trying to pick it up. By the time I got home all my joints hurt. It feels like I just had surgery. Please dear lord take it back were it was.
Pray that slowing down will be possible and helpful.
