Hello friends ~
Just got off the phone with Trish Bremer and talked her ear off for about 45 minutes ... [sigh]... poor thing, I don't know if she even got 2 minutes of air time, with all MY yappin'! :)
Anyway - here's the latest update!
Trish is BACK in the hospital and will REMAIN there till her baby is born. The doctors have decided there is too much risk in letting her go home and they'd prefer to have her under constant supervision and bed rest. If ya'll know Trish, you know she's always on the go, not one to sit around and REST, so I think this is a very good thing!
Grandpa Ernie has come in from Maryland and is taking care of her son, the fur-babies and the house, which in turn keeps Trish from worrying too much. Trish's husband is currently in KOREA and not able to come home. If you're in the military you understand that they don't/won't bring our men/women home unless "Red Cross" gets involved.
The GOOD news? Hubby is/was already scheduled to return home June 1st, so we know he'll be back in the next 3.5 weeks. The doctors are very optimistic that they will be able to monitor Trish and the baby through a JUNE 7th labor day.
Okay - this is where all of YOU come in? Let's remember to send some positive thoughts, vibes, prayers, mojo juice, whatever you can muster.... her way. She's going through some rough times and it's not made any easier by being stuck in a hospital and a husband that is thousands of miles away.
Also - if anyone has TIME, not just today, but through out the next few weeks and want to CALL Trish? Here is the phone number.... it rings directly to her room and Trish has already given me permission to share it on the boards.
Hospital Room: 757-953-4183
She is at the Portsmouth Hospital, 4th floor, Patient name: Trish Bremer and that's where she'll be for several weeks. I plan on making a trip out there in the next few days and I know she'd love any and ALL visitors.
I can't imagine spending that much time in a hospital, bless her heart she's gonna go bonkers. I did find out she liked to read "V C Andrews" stuff and I happen to have about 50 of VC's hardbacks - so Im gonna bring a bunch of those up to her. Maybe pack up some protein samples (she'll hate me for that one, but I'll still make her chug 'em back).
Anyway, enough rambling from me. If ya'll can call her - please do, she'd love it. If you have time to swing by and visit, PLEASE DO ...oh, and if you want to send well wishes to her profile/surgery page, here's the link:
