I'm not fully understanding whats going on. And to be honest, I don't think I want to right now. Emotionally I am just frayed... burning the candle at both ends and now lets add a flame heating the center. I'm including a link to my sisters caringbridge page. But basically Wednesday she will be admitted to attempt to dissolve the clot and hopefully relieve the pressure and swelling on her brain. CaringBridge / Kimberly Holbrook / Welcome
Kim has made videos messages to everyone, including my kids. She says its just in case. In talks between me and her, she says she is frankly not having good feelings about any of this, but knows its a chance... and a chance worth taking.
My kids know she is having some work done today to try to make her better. I've learned I do not have to tell them the risks, they know. We've walked this medical tightrope in our family for so long that nothing seems to come as a shock to them. David told me "mommy if Auntie dies who will I talk to when I'm mad at you?". Melanie grabbed my sisters face yesterday and said "You can't die Auntie, OK? I want another tea party!" I never mentioned the possibility of death to them, they just know.
In an effort to keep my mind occupied today, I have simply found things to consume my time. its all I can do... and I hate feeling so helpless.
I've been praying for your sister since your request a few weeks ago but I'm a little late to this update. Really praying and hoping everything went well today.
Many hugs and prayers for you and your kids.
