Prayer Request

UPDATE ON THE UPDATE:

Kristen is on her way home from the hospital with a new diagnosis of muscular inflammation. This is what the doc at the Urgent Care said yesterday afternoon - thanks for your prayers. Keep praying that soon the pain will be gone, nobody what is causing it!

Once again, I have come to give you a little update.

Kristen has been doing well, and lately has had to be at the hospital 12 miles north of us, twice a day, six hours apart. Kate has been doing quite well learning to nurse, Emma is a bit behind. They have both regained the birth weight they lost, and had made a bit of a gain as of Friday. You can check out my site for the latest pictures.

About the prayer request - Kristen ended up back in the hospital late last night with chest pains. She's been diagnosed with pericarditis (inflammation of the sack around the heart). I read up on it by googling it, but it didn't help much in understanding how she acquired this latest bump in the road. She will probably be released today and be on antiinflammatories. Please pray that she will not only get over this quickly, but that she'll be able to continue nursing.

Thank you!

Dawn, her mom
