Its Dwayne again. This site is complicated to figure out. It took me 15 minutes to get here..I just got home from seeing Brandy. And looks like she will be in the hospital for a while. She has spiked a temperature, and her white blood count is elevated. she is getting another ultrasound done this afternoon just to make sure Makenna is ok still, and that her cervix is closed. They are just scared that if she gets out of bed, it may open. The doctors are talking about giving her steroids to help Makenna's lungs. Just in case she does go into labor. We are really hoping that wont take place. They told us that if Makenna were to be born now, there is a 90% chance of her survival. But we want her to bake a bit more. As a father im getting stressed cause theres nothing i can do to stop this. Shes really worried that Makenna will want to come out and meet everyone. We dont want her to. So now Brandy is stuck on bedrest at the hospital. She did want me to let you all know. and to say Thank you all for the prayers, they are working, she loves you all. Im going to be bringing her the lap top tonight, cause she feels bad for leaving you all behind. Thats Brandy for you. She cares to much. So theres a little update. you girls are rocken! Keep on praying cause they are working! Have yourself a good day. Thanks for everything Ladies, i printed out all your posts and she cried, knowing that you all cared. Brandy loves you all.

Oh my god, I'm so glad you updated again Dwayne. You are awesome. You tell that girl to rest. I hope Mckenna stays in and bakes for a while longer. You two take it easy. If you need anything, please just ask. Tell Brandi to stop worrying about all of us. We just want her to get better and we love her. You're all still in my prayers!!!!

Hi Dwayne, we are definitely thinking of you guys. The fever, elevated WBC's and pain are classic appendicitis. I hope all goes well, and that Makenna keeps on baking away.
