No Beds Available

It is not looking like we will be heading to the hospital today. There are more patients than there are beds at the moment, so we will have to wait. There is a small chance that something will become available, but it doesn't seem very likely. We have been advised that there may not be anything until the end of the week and even that is tentative. This is quite disappointing, especially because Molly is so uncomfortable. Simply moving her from her crib down to the couch is complicated and generally causes quite a bit of crying. We are going to have to start using codeine again and hope that it will give her some more relief.

The hospital beds are presently filled with kids who are sicker than Molly, which is an important reminder for us. I really hope that a bed becomes available soon so that Molly can start to feel better.

Thanks for checking in!

Hope the sick kids get better soon and she can get in for treatment...it's been nice seeing how many really good moments you have to share relative to the hard times. She's still a prize-winning cutie! And I remember you with glasses. :)
