Sunday morning and Annie is still in ICU and will remain there until tomorrow. She had a potassium spike yesterday which they moved on quickly to bring down before it could affect her heart. They loaded her up with lots more medicines and watched her blood levels every 1/2 hour from 3:00 pm until late evening. She still is sleeping only off and on during the night. She can still be pretty jittery at times- one of the medicines they gave her during the worst of times her body has basically become addicted to and they are trying to reduce it gradually. She is in good spirits and so cooperative with everything. She just doesn't complain. I'm really proud of her. We've been so well taken care of - with the transportation for my mom and dad to/from the hospital and meals - things have gone smoothly here at home. I got my first good night sleep last night so I'm feeling so much better today. Paul has been covering the nights and I do the days with my mom and dad coming in during the day for 4 hours and Ben coming in in the late afternoon/evening to help Paul out. I can't tell you all thank you enough for your support and prayers.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, on your own intelligence rely not.
In all your ways be mindful of him, and He will make straight your paths."
-Proverbs 3:5-6

Her attitude is the most important weapon in her arsenal. If she has a solid understanding of what she has to do and a hardcharging attitude, she can go to the moon. She does have to check the fuel though. (Joke)
Annie, when I'm afraid and feel powerless, I pack Jesus with me - strangely enough, it works like a hot damn!
Prayers out to you and yours. God Bless you and keep you safe beneath his wings.

Annie, Paul, Jane, and Ben,
I am so inspired by you all.
Not knowing you for long, but long enough to know what blessings we all have by being a part of your lives, and the journey Annie is on. Thank you for being to open to sharing your love of God and each other with us. God calls you to come to him when the load is heavy and you will find peace. Peace of Christ be with you.
