I think they tried to kill me...

By Nancy -
Well, we returned last night from another trip to Pittsburgh and today I feel like I was tenderized with an enormous meat tenderizer. I Am IN PAIN!!! Yes, I truly believe someone was out to kill me yesterday during my bronch. Of course I'm kidding, but my body does feel as if that might have been the case.

I went in for a normal bronch, so they decided not to use general anesthesia, but instead more of a conscious sedation without the use of a breathing tube. BIG MISTAKE! When they got in, they realized I needed to be ballooned again, so they started over, giving me general anesthesia, a breathing tube, and ballooned the area. I am still totally doped up, almost 24 hours later, so if none of this makes any sense, I apologize.

My Pulmonary Function scores were also lower, which is of concern to me, but hopefully that is due to an infection, not a lung decline. I will keep you posted.

Please say some extra prayers for me and my lungs, we might need them. I will let you know when I get the results of the bronch.

All my love! Nancy

Please Help!

Hello Friends!  As most of you know, I have felt called to assist Christian artist Jason Dunn.  Jason made such a huge impact on my Hannah through his music and positive outlook at a time when she was emotionally and spiritually lost.  God used Jason to answer a very special prayer I had sent to him regarding Hannah. In the time since Jason and I started working together, a lot has happened.  We founded a charity for children and young adults with diabetes called the Jason Dunn Diabetes Foundation ( www.jasondunnfoundation.com ); we put together an 8 state tour to support this foundation; and now, we have launched a campaign through a website called Faith Launcher ( www.faithlauncher.com ) to help pay off the debt from Jason's new album, Abandon Progress, but also, hopefully, to raise money for our foundation. I would like to ask you to consider helping Jason and me by supporting his Faith Launcher Campaign.  You can do this by going to www.faithlauncher.com...

Pain is under control

I was very concerned last night when the pain returned with a vengeance, I almost had to return to the ER, but I was able to talk to my brother-in-law and he suggested I take a second pain pill and that made the difference. I have made sure to be on top of the pain and not let it get so bad again. Hannah stayed home again today, but I am hoping that she will be able to return to school tomorrow. This is a nasty bug! I couldn't let Scott have all of the St. Patty's day fun. What do you think, do curls suite me? Love to you all! Nancy
