MUCH good news to share tonight!
When I spoke with Ms. Jan earlier this evening, she shared with me that Evie had had some great things happen today. Not exactly TO her, but giving her some great joy anyway!
Ciera found out she was chosen as the Junior Class Queen! What makes this so special is that she was not nominated. The class just got to write in the name of someone they felt deserved to be Queen. And Ciera is IT! What is even more precious is that Ciera's friend, Colin who fought his own battle with cancer this summer, was elected King!
Meleia was playing Volleyball tonight and pretty much every family member that was handy was planning to be there to watch her play. So she was excited beyond belief! And one of her coaches made a DVD of JUST Mimi during the past few volleyball games so Evie was able to watch her play volleyball without having to watch the entire games. So she enjoyed that so much!
When I talked to Ms. Jan, David was en route from Kansas and was planning to be at the hospital around 6:00. So Evie was SO looking forward to seeing her baby brother!
I actually got to talk to Evie for just a few moments! I can't even begin to tell you all how amazing it was to hear her voice! She *sounded* so good! I got a chance to tell her myself just how much she is loved and how hard all her friends and loved ones are praying for her!
Health-wise, nothing has changed much. The blockage is still there. They attempted to do an ultrasound of her leg earlier today, but it was causing her such extreme pain, even bringing in a different machine to try, that she just couldn't tolerate it.
She's very sore from having been immobile for so many days. Her left leg is severely swollen and they are concerned she might have formed a blood clot in that leg. That's why they were trying to do the ultrasound.
They were able to meet with hospice and have all arrangements set up for when she is stable enough to go home. She's not stable enough at this point to, in fact, go home, even with hospice in place.
Once she is able to go home, she will have much support with her family there taking care of her. She's currently got a couple of aunts and a cousin in from various places. David should be there by the time I get this posted. So she'll have lots of fabulous care once she gets to go home.
I think that's about it for today. I hope I haven't failed to tell you anything important. I was driving when I spoke with Ms. Jan so I couldn't take notes like I normally do. When I know more, I'll fill you all in!
It was such a joy to get to tell Evie PERSONALLY today how many people love her and are lifting her and her family up in prayer! Please continue!
