Lots of luck on the 4th, and let me know if you need *anything*.

Update on friend's sick mother--she's improving and hopes to be moved into a private room in the next day or so. No real answers still, but getting out of ICU is progress!

New news on a fellow XE Corporation officer--her grandmother is gravely ill and isn't expected to survive the week, her father was hospitalized suddenly last night/this morning, and on top of these her grandfather has also taken ill. Needless to say she's gone to be with her family in this difficult time. Please keep her and her loved ones in your thoughts.

New news on me--yep, was rear ended on Saturday afternoon in heavy traffic. I'm still a bit sore but don't seem to be seriously hurt. Luckily I was alone, I'd begged K to go out with me and he's so little for his age, who knows if he'd been hurt or not. The van has what is hopefully minor damage that can be easily taken care of by the other guys' insurance. Of course, it's put a crimp into my plans to get the new House Director trained and the chapter house ready to open on Sunday, but that's life in the big city

Thanks for all of your love and PMs!!!

Roses,
Christin

How is the baby panda thumb?

How are the friends and relations for whom positive thoughts or prayers have been given?

Roses,
Silver

Little Baby Panda's thumb is great! The surgery lasted less than 30 minutes and by the time she'd had lunch that day she was back to normal! We go tomorrow for follow up.

Updates from the rest please, too!

Could everyone keep my brother in your prayers? He's getting deployed November 29th-ish. We're all getting together for a big Thanksgiving and holding off on Christmas until he gets back. . . .

Thanks!

Sarah

Sorry to crash, but I'm sure you were praying for Mr. Silver. Please tell him that I got three votes in on time, and I wish him the best of luck!!

ps - needless to say, your inbox is full again!

Ladies, AOIIKristi needs your prayers today.

She's on her way to the hospital with her new little baby that has tested high for PKU. They are hoping that it was a false positive and they will do more tests on her today (Thursday). Please give this little legacy your thoughs and prayers as she goes through testing and awaits the outcome.

Please let us know how Elizabeth is doing. My thoughts and best wishes are with all of them right now.

NeonPi · #38 12-30-2004, 04:38 PM

Fingers crossed and prayers agoing for Kristi and Elizabeth and family!

aoiikristi · #39 01-04-2005, 01:26 PM

Thanks so much for the prayers!
As it turns out, Elizabeth does have PKU (phenylketonuria). What that mean for us is that she will be on a special diet for her entire life.
It will be an adjustment for all of us, but we've already received such an incredible amount of support that I'm sure she will be fine. Emory is THE leading research facility in the country for this, and that is where we will be taking her. Not to mention, I've received so many phone calls and emails in the last few days, many from AOII's.
Please continue to keep us in your prayers, and thank you to all of you--it reminds me of how truly blessed I am to have AOII in my life!

OleMissGlitter · #40 01-05-2005, 10:36 AM

She will be in my prayers.

I am glad that things for Elizabeth are going well. It's all very positive that she has a diagnosis, that there is a course of treatment, and that it was caught early. You all are on the prayer list.

SDTSarah · #42 01-07-2005, 03:47 PM

Sorry to crash, but I just wanted to let you know that Elizabeth is in VERY good hands! (I'm a proud Emory student!) I also think this is an incredibly sweet thread...it speaks volumes about the AOPi sisterhood!

Please pray for a coworker's nephew who lives in AL. His 2 year old nephew got Ecolio, not sure yet of the source, and the little boy is not doing well at all. He was doing fine and then yesterday it turned for the worse and he now has developed something else related to Ecolio.

AOIIalum · #44 01-07-2005, 04:59 PM

That's horrible news. My thoughts and best wishes go out to your co-worker and family.

Kristi, hope you're all adjusting to your new "normal" with Elizabeth.
