I am so eternally grateful tonight! I know that prayers are indeed answered! This morning I received a phone call from Sarah, she was very distraught. She discovered that Tyler had accidentally been giving Kenzley an overdose of her thyroid medication. They had just changed her prescription from the generic back to the name brand to see if she would absorb it better. Since they don't have prescription coverage the pharmacist told her that to help her out financially he would give her a higher microgram pill of the name brand and she would just cut them in half and only give Kenzley one half of a pill every day. He labeled the bottle and everything. Well daddy unfortunately didn't read the bottle, he just gave her her former dose which had been 1 & 1/2 pills a day. My heart immediately skipped a beat and I began saying a prayer in my heart that all would be well. As I listened to her tell me all that was going on. She had called both of her doctors and poison control they had told her to take her to the Emergency Room. Sarah told them she would take her to LDS Hospital, (in her upset she couldn't remember how to get to Primary Children's) so she was calling Neil and I to ask us to meet her there. We spent a good chunk of our day in the ER with them waiting for test results and discussing possible treatment ideas. Poor little thing already has a fear of doctors, nurses and hospitals because of having to have her blood checked so regularly, however after today that has increased exponentially. There will be more tests to follow to see if there are any long term damages, however things are looking promising.
So tonight as I've sat and reflected on my past week and all the stress and drama that has been taking place between home and work I humbly thank Creator, for ALL that I have and ALL that I am. I am so very grateful tonight for the miracles of modern medicine and the wonderful people who work in this field. I am grateful for my sweet daughter who has developed into such a outstanding mother! I'm so proud of how she handled the whole situation! While she was of course concerned for her daughter she was able to remain calm enough and not make Tyler feel any worse than he already did. It is such a GIFT to remain calm, cool and collected. She was able to speak with kindness yet being firm and in control. So GRATEFUL for you, my Sweet Sarah! So GRATEFUL for the AMAZING GIFT that Kenzley is in our lives! She is such a smart little monkey! Grateful for Tyler and his love for my daughter and my granddaughter!
Everything that transpired today really put EVERYTHING in PROSPECTIVE! Life is TOO PRECIOUS to let silly little things at work get you down! Life is TOO PRECIOUS to not EMBRACE IT! GRAB it with BOTH HANDS! LOVE IT! Every minute, no matter what!
What an AMAZING gift GRATITUDE is! If you can put yourself in a place of GRATITUDE each and every moment you will find that you can ACHIEVE so much more!
Sending you....Love, Light & Laughter!
