Hi guys... wow you all are amazing, but I knew that already. I haven't had a chance to hop online at all but after nearly passing out in the hospital hallway this afternoon I decided I needed to stop home and shower and eat and take a half hour break.

Makena has not been feeling great the last few weeks, she tends to have chronic sinus and tonsil issues so the doc chalked it up to that, but her on antibiotics and we went about our business. Over the weekend she spiked a fever and Sunday she became serious ill. She was admitted to the Children's Hospital early Monday morning. She has something called Kawasaki's Disease which is an auto-immune disorder and her body is basically attacking herself. I can't tell you how horrible it is to watch. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. 90% of cases respond well to treatment but she is in the 10% that needs more aggressive attention unfortunately. They have been monitoring her cardio system closely as it can cause cardiac aneurysm... I'm not even entirely sure waht that means but I know it is not good!!!!

I'm running on adrenaline... I'm pretty overwhelmed at the info, doctors, tests, and everything that has gone on in the last 36 hours. My husband is in healthcare administration but he's an absolute wreck, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing I think and because he understands more than I do I think he's a little freaked out. The doctors he works with have been wonderful though and one even stopped in to review her case today even though he's not involved.

It is so hard to see my little baby like this and she's been a tough cookie but she's starting to wear thin. The good thing is they know what it is, and if they can keep her heart safe she shouldn't have any residual issues once they get her through this.

My mom has been taking care of Baby C and he is doing fine though I know he misses me. We have lots of friends and family offering to help though I'm so busy trying to navigate through the info and take care of Kena's needs I don't even know how to tell people what to do... luckily my sister and mom are doing a great job keeping things "normal" for Colton.

Anyway thank you all for the thoughts and prayers. In all the chaos of the last few days it was pretty sweet to log on to FB and TOC and see all my buddies sending good vibes our way.

We are waiting for another round of treatment but she cannot have it until tonight, I guess. Hopefully this second round will kick it in the butt. I'll try to keep you all posted here and there. It kind of helps to vent... I feel better after typing!!!
