We went

[Jennifer and Jack]

I don't want this to turn into a breeding issue so I took the post down
Thank you all for you love and support

[Jennifer and Jack]

Thanks Lisa, I wish you were able to go on the cruise I was looking forward to meeting you, Thank God I booked yesterday because if it was today, I could not have booked....

[cheryl & oliver]

Jen, my Mom used to say, there but for the Grace of G-d go I....I think sitting between these poor people, and seeing their problems, made that saying all the more meaningful.  I am sorry you are having all these problems, but lets hope that now things will get better for Jack in the coming weeks, and you will be feeling better too....Hugs from your friends here in Florida.. Good thought and prayers are coming your way from us here....

[Jennifer and Jack]

Thank you.....

[Ellen, Brûlée, and Tira]

You are in our thoughts and prayers.  You just snuggle in with that precious litte guy and get some well earned rest!  Keep us posted, Jennifer.

[Jennifer and Jack]

His little body is snuggled up to mine as I type this and between my lap top being on my lap and his hot body next to me I am sweating to death HA

[Janel and Sophia]

Oh Jennifer,

Hope and Pray for Jack.  The not knowing is the hardest part.  These pets of ours, are like our family and their pain our pain.  Even with what Jack had going on he felt the sorrow of the other women, what an amazing doodle you have!

Taking excellent care of our babies is expensive, but would we would have it any other way,no I don't think so.  Keep the faith and sure hope all turns out well.

[Jennifer and Jack]

The expense is an issue even 20 percent is a lot when you get into the thousands like I have but you make it work, so my roots are going to get longer.... my nails won't get polished, my lights get shut off, (just kidding about the lights) for now anyway ha  

 

The not knowing is torture.. because it leaves your mind to think the worst... I have it pretty settled now that he is okay.. I am glad what the other doctor thought was tumors was shriveled up adrenal glands though I have to say I thought he would be much sicker if he had untreated addison's disease, it almost killed me.. but hey, I will take it .

 

Jack is not like family to me, he is my family, my favorite family member too... He is my favorite living thing...Though I would be shattered when and if something was to happen to him, I have a lot of comfort in knowing that I have yet to waste one day spoiling him rotten.. One of the benefits of living a life like I have is you don't take anything for granted and you never know who is going to be here tomorrow and who isn't so you learn to make each day count and Jack Daniles is spoiled and loved every day and will continue to be as long as both of us are alive....

[Martha & Cooper]

Jennifer, so sorry to hear about Jack's troubles.   Sure hope they come up with a good treatment plan and he is feeling better soon.    You are both in my thoughts and prayers.      Cooper hasn't felt well for a couple of days either, so I know what it is to worry....

[Jennifer and Jack]

I really never had to worry before.. It was other people who worried about me.. I always try to put on my bravest face and say how fine I am because I didn't want anyone to worry... Now that I know what it is like to worry about someone I love, I am heartsick for the people who love me, who worry about me.....

 

I guess it comes with the territory of love....I think of my parents and what it must feel like for them to worry about me and it makes me sad.. because I know even though everything with Jack so far seemingly is fixable.. The thought of him even being uncomfortable makes me insane... so I can't imagine a parent to a child.. I guess it gives me more empathy.

 

I remember when I did pediatric emergency and trauma. I sometimes would get frustrated with parents who rushed their child to the emergency room because they had a fever.. I would roll my eyes and wonder why the heck they just didn't give tylenol.... now I know sort of the shear terror they must have felt thinking their child had the worst possible disease imaginable, 

 

If I ever get to go back to work as a nurse in Peds, I  will be so much more empathetic...

[Nicky, Riley & Boris]

Jennifer, great to get the update.  You were first in my thoughts this morning and I just had to get here to check on Jack.  I am so glad that you are handling all this in this most positive way and thank goodness for Insurance even though the 20% is not nothing you would be totally wiped out if you didn't have it.  I  will be happier when all this is over for you and Jack is on the mend taking whatever meds he needs for a stable and healthy life.  I do hope you have a good and uneventful day today.

[Jennifer and Jack]

Thanks Nicky.. I am still waiting on phone calls back from the specialist. She makes her phone calls in the afternoon...

 

An uneventful day and weekend is just what I am praying for....

 

THanks for thinking of us

[Sharon & Monty]

I'm speechless.  I would have never imagined baby Jack would have so many medical issues.  I'm very sorry to hear this news, but as you say they are treatable I'm very glad for that.  Do take care of yourself too.
