Ahhh! Jessica I am so sorry--what a frustrating week! Hopefully you guys are getting all your bad luck out at the beginning of the year and the rest will be smooth sailing. We'll be thinking about you guys!

Wow, that is quite an interesting week. I hope all is well with your surgery. Boob surgery isn't too bad, at least it wasn't for me. No, I'm not talking about implants, but if you show up to your first stint at Ward Choir Director with 32 DD's, we'll know what you were talking about. Kidding, kidding.

Hang in there. This too shall pass.

Tanya said...

Jen said...

Jessica said...

When it rains, it pours-a little something I have learned in life! Just open the umbrella and pray for sun! :)

J said...

We will be praying for you.

Heidi said...

Wow! Wow! Wow!
Sounds like you need another plate!
Good luck with that surgery - that is definitely not fun news!
Mortality is an adventure isn't it?
I will be thinking of you and praying for you!

All My Love!

Holy cow!! I can't believe what a week!! We are thinking about you and your whole family. Let me know if you get a better Pediatrician I'm not too thrilled with mine either. Apparently having three kids in chicago is a bizzare thing to do and I'm crazy for doing it. The nerve of some people huh!! take care

Unknown said...

Oh Jess. I'm so sorry for such craziness. We will keep you all in our prayers too. I really liked my pediatrician while I was there. His name is Micheal Fell in Algonquin at Children & Teens. He was awsome. I'll call you with details. Hang in there! Love you guys!
