Hi Jocelyn...please do keep updating as you can :o) And can someone please explain exactly what Pulmonary Hypertension is??? Sorry I didn't write sooner...I've been under the weather myself since I woke up with a sore throat a week ago last Saturday...I got a cold and I'm stuck in that nasty stage where I start coughing and can't stop until Imyself and wet my pants in one fell swoop :o( A couple of times this past week I started responding to some email and got one done and went to start on another and coughing overtook me :o( I couldn't even go to Devon's awards ceremony :o( By the way...he got an award for "most improved social skills"...but that's another post :o) At first I wasn't concerned because I figured the sleep study wasn't an emergency kind of thing...but now I'm concerned...bloody vomit sounds scary to me :o( That coupled with Tess not acting "Tess-Like"...well...she needs to feel better. You know I'm both praying for her and sending positive thoughts too...and of course Devon sends his tummy zerberts :o) Take are and squish each other for us :O) Love, Penny...loving & devoted wife to Joe, the best husband in the world...mom to Nick (15 yrs old...lover of Fishing, Dragons, Turtles, Metroid Prime, RollerCoasters, Chocolate Icecream w/ Ovaltine sprinkles, Devon (10 yrs...lover of Barney, Blue, Nappy ol' Bear w/dreadlocks, Pooh, Elmo, & food in general.
