Good vibes for my Love

It's never easy being far away from the ones you love. It's even harder when they get sick or have medical issues. I dont know how many people have seen the Dairy Queen commercial where the man and his pregnant wife exchange dreams and the man is sitting in the stirrups in labor yelling "You did this to me." Well today is one of those days I wish I could switch places with my baby. This pregnancy has been tough on her all around from the emotional changes to the physical anguish and upset stomachs but last night she was feeling so awful that it was killing me that I couldn't do anything more to help or make her feel better.

Around 1am I think she told me she felt so bad she was going to have her dad take her down to the Emergency Room. They both called me this morning to let me know that she may have appendicitis. That's most definitely not what we were wanting to hear with her 4 months pregnant and us living so far apart. She's doing ok though and they said the baby is fine but if they have to operate they will have to do a CT Scan which has the potential of having long term effects on the baby. We are hoping that it doesn't come to that but are definitely open to well wishes and prayers. I'll update as soon as we know more about where things are headed.

***UPDATE: ***
Because my baby is very quick to check things out when she doesn't feel well they caught the bacterial infection in her appendix before it could become full blow appendicitis. This is good news is that they were able to treat it with antibiotics and she should be able to go home today or tomorrow. We're very relieved because it means no CT Scan which had the potential of causing Leukemia in the baby.

She's resting more comfortably in her hospital room and waiting to eat now. They wouldn't let her have anything water, food nothing from midnight until they reran the bloodwork so my baby is hungry.

I want to thank everyone for their well-wishes and prayers and I can't wait till she is here by my side permanently. I know that being without me the last few days was much harder on her than me and it wasn't easy on me at all. Nothing like having a loved one ill and not being able to do anything even as simple but profoundly helpful as just holding their hand.

Latest Update
Everything looks good and we expect her to be released tomorrow to go home. They listened to the baby's heartbeat again tonight and everything is good there as well. The biggest problem today was simple boredom. I spoke with her most of the day while not even pretending to work and then again this evening but it's still not quite like being there.

Thanks again to all our wonderful friends here.
