My 11 year old Grandaughter is in the hospital. They think it is Bactrial Menengitis. She lives in Stockton and they are taking her by Ambulance to Oakland to a Pediatric Hospital. I don't have too much more information at the moment. I cannot make it up there right now as Dennis is ill also. So if you can spare a minute or more please pray for my little spit 'n image. And maybe slide one in there for Dennis too.

Thank You
Love 'n hugs,
Elsie

Thank You, everyone. There is no new news. Our little one is in isolated ICU. Last I heard she was sleeping. The hospital has "houseing" available for my son, DIL and their daughter, my Suzie Q.
I will try to keep you all updated..Dennis is doing his exercises this morning. Hope that means he is feeling some what better.

You all are the bestest. And I really don't think tank you is a big enough word....Bt it is the only one I have so THANK YOU!
Love'n hugs,
Elsie

Lynda Grace is being moved out of ICU this evening. And she is hungry!!! But still in quite a bit of pain and her fever is still fluctuating. So not going home but no ICU.. She is having chicken noodle soup and GREEEN Jello and a bottled water for supper, Her choices. Maybe I should have a talk to her about those food choices. But I really doubt she was offered steak and baked potaotes....LOL.
