Well, looks like I'm gonna sit this one out too.  My daughter got sick Wed. night and I took her to Primary Childrens on Thurs.  After 8.5 hours in the ER they decided to keep us and they will be doing surgery today.  They don't know for sure what they will find till they get in there, but it could be real simple or quite complicated so I don't know how long we will be here.  By some stroke of a small miracle and we are able to leave tonight I guess I could get down there, but I doubt it and if I did, with the last two nights sleep, it doesn't say good things for the outcome!  Good Luck to everyone running and I'll be looking for those reports!!!!

I am so sorry that your daughter is having medical issues. This definitely falls under the "more important than running" category. I hope you both recover well from this experience.

Hope everything continues to get better. Our prayers are with you guys. Sorry about having to miss the race. I know this isn't much but it will be cold and not that much fun anyways.

I hate the feeling of being in the hospital when you don't know who long you'll be there, what's wrong, and you or a loved one is in pain. That's no fun. I hope you and your family are able to make it back home soon. Don't even think worry about the race. There will always be more races. Take care.

I am so sorry to hear about your daughter. As you already know, she is getting some of the best care in the world. ( I am a little partial to the anesthesia dept ) I hope that everything goes well and that you are all back home and doing well soon!!

I'm sorry about your daughter. We just recently visited Primary's with my little Stockton and it is an amazing place. Just know that you and your family will be in our prayers.

Michelle, My love and prayers for you and your family! We look forward to hearing a great surgery and recovery report from you soon! PCMC is definitely the place to be when a child needs medical help. I will miss having you with me and will think of your family through this run!

So very sorry about your daughter! She needs you more than the race does that is for sure. You are doing an awesome job keeping priorities straight. cody and I have your in our prayers. Hope all goes smoothly and you are home again soon.

Yikes! She must have been really really sick to necessitate a trip to the ER, and even a surgery! I hope and pray she will be better soon.

From Christi on Fri, Jan 18, 2008 at 12:18:38

Oh Michelle! So sorry about your daughter. Thank goodness she has a great nurse mom who takes the best care of her! I'll be thinking about you and praying for your daughter to recover FAST!! R-E-A-L-L-Y will miss you tomorrow! Call me if by some stroke of luck you can make it- you still would run great I'm sure!
