Mommy's Sick

Well I just spent the entire evening in the ER. Matt had to stay home to take care of Isabella so my mom took me. Well I have been having severe abdominal pain for three days. I was hoping it was nothing, but it looks like I might have to have my gallbladder out in the next few days. I go back to get another test, because the sonogram did not show any visible stones to warrant surgery tonight. But when the surgeon pushed on my right upper quadrant of my stomach, I wanted to kick him. It all adds up to gallbladder. I am in horrible pain and I can't keep hardly anything down. They sent me home with Lortab at 8:00p.m. and I have already had two. It is only taking the edge off. Please pray I can get some sleep. I feel pretty doped up now, so maybe I can sleep through the pain. Anyways I will keep you posted. Bella is great. Hope everyone liked the new photos.

mommy to Kaden, Brody and angel Ava said...: Oh, poor thing. I hope you are able to get the gallblader deal taken care of fast. I will pray for you to get some peaceful rest tonight and for a speedy recovery if they do decide to remove your gallbladder. Just take care of yourself and let Matt and the rest of your family take care of the girls for you (although I know how hard it will be to resist those three angels). As always you all are in my thoughts and prayers...Amy; Monday, January 28, 2008 11:46:00 PM

Story of Isabella Grace Gudde

Isabella was born December 23, 2006. She was born with a congenital heart defect called Truncus Arteriosus. She also was diagnosed with a deletion on her 22nd chromosome known as DiGeorge Syndrome. She had her first open heart surgery Febuary 27, 2007. She had 5 med flights last year. She had pulmonary hypertension and kept going into respiratory distress. After the 4th med flight, they decided to put in a trach and put her on the ventilator. She was home for 4 days before she was flown back. The fifth time was the worst. I really thought we were going to lose her. She again showed great strength and determination. She had a cardiac arrest on Aug 1, 2007. She was left brain damaged and we were told she was blind and deaf. Matt and I never accepted this fate and as time has gone on we have seen miracle after miracle. Bella now has her hearing back and much of her sight. She is still very far behind, but is making progress everyday. She came home September 12, 2007 after spending almost 160 days at Childrens Mercy in 2007. She was at home up until this February. She went in for her monthly check up and we found out she had a huge aneurysm at the conduit site on her heart. She underwent her second open heart surgery on February 21, 2008, just 6 days short from being one year post op from her first surgery. She is now home and doing fabulous. Enjoy the stories of our everyday miracles with Isabella.
