130/80

Sometimes it feels like a crap shoot, but we came away from the doctor today with a BP that we were happy with. Jillian is still on bed-rest because it is low-level hypertension and she has been almost completely unaggravated (with the exception of having me around, generally). Dr. Hall wasn't comfortable sending her off into the stressful world until her BP becomes consistently low (Jillian is normally in the 116/70 range). So more home-time! It's okay though, because the care-packages have been coming in (we love you all!) and Jillian is loaded up with magazines, coloring books, movies, the book "Twilight," and enough snacks to last an entire winter, let alone a few days or weeks of cabin fever.

Thank you to everyone who has called and visited and kept us in your thoughts and prayers. We have 9 more weeks to go, and we are going to fight for every single one of them.

Glad to hear everything is going okay. BTW, lucky you, you get to read 'Twilight' with no disruptions...you'll love it. Make sure to have the other 3 on hand because you'll want to continue on as soon as possible.

glad things are going well. Your such a lucky girl to have great friends and family around. I am glad there are people around to take care of you since we can't. See you this weekend for the convention!
