We are in the Hospital

Hi everyone! Just wanted to let everyone know that McKenna is in the hospital. We came in to the emergency room yesterday at 2:00. She was suffering from severe abdominal pains (screaming couldn't stand up pain). Her white blood count was very high which led them to believe that there was a bad infection some where in her body. After talking to 3 surgeons, 2 doctors, and a nurse practitioner they decided her pain must be related to her appendix. They took her to surgery around 8:00 and we were in a room by 10:30. She has rested today, went riding in a wagon, watched T.V., and visited with family. She seems to be feeling better minus the pain from the 3 incisions. The surgeon is baffled by the fact that the appendix actually looks really good. They have sent it off to pathology which will be back Tuesday. They now believe it could be a severe lower GI virus. So were are in a waiting game. The doctor said she must eat, drink, walk, and be out of pain before we can leave the hospital. Please pray for her. She is not interested in eating or drinking tonight, but wants to be home with Carrington and her cat. We will see her surgeon again in the morning and we are praying she says we can go home. I will keep you posted on the update. Thank you for the prayers and calls. Love You!!!
