Daily Ooos: Friday, January 21

[faerywings]

I know that so many of you have been doing the same as me, refreshing Facebook on Rae's page. Hoping for a miracle. Sending love.
I am finding it so hard that I can't *do* anything other than that. I am sure you all know how I feel.
It's difficult to explain to people how much you all mean to me. I mean-- I have never met Rae but she is in my heart. You all are.

My parents are coming up today after my dad's appt for his hip. First time having bagels since the Incident. Scott's got this. I felt bad for him yesterday, he had plans to go help the "Nanparents" - his word for Nana and Grandpa but because of the weather, they canceled. He looked so worn out and lost by the end of the day. He has been making plans just about every day to keep himself busy. Guess when he has time to think, it isn't the best for him.
Cait had her first day on campus. She was supposed to be there at 9 but we had rain turn to snow and the roads were horrible. She was able to change all of the in-person meetings to virtual. But the time she had to go to class at 3 pm the roads were all cleared.

I finally printed out my mom's b-day card, thank you all for sharing the flowers and messages for her. (Template is adapted from Vicki Robinson)


Rae, I don't know if you will see this but I hope that you can feel all of the love and support and strength everyone is sending you.
hugs~~~~~~~~

Yes, like you I am refreshing Rae’s FB page a lot. I understand what you mean @faerywings about the ladies in this group. I have known a few of you for a long time…others just a sort time. But the few paragraphs that you each share on a daily basis makes you all so important to me.

Florida turns cold again this weekend. And I purchased the tickets for Syd and me to go back home end of February so I need to get myself toughened up anyway.

@faerywings thinking about Scott.

Hey ladies. I knew you'd be up @faerywings Chris. I'm home from the hospital. She was found yesterday afternoon and was in the hospital for 12 hours before they realized who she was and contacted us. She will probably never wake up, it is critical but she is at peace now. If she comes out of this the brain damage is extensive so technically Bailey is gone. I am devastated, don't know how we survive from this, that girl was my life. But I take comfort in knowing she is in a coma, she is at peace now. I didn't put any info on FB other than found, critical in hospital. I don't want to talk with others about this yet. I just knew Chris would be thinking of me and I wanted to let you guys know. I appreciate all the love and prayers from everyone. They let us come in for an hour but now only Jen can be there but when she is passing they will try to get us up to say goodbye but she probably won't ever wake up.

I love that girl more than I can say so I am finding it hard to figure out how to function but I am going to take care of all the dogs, including Bella, today and try to function. Thx for all the caring, everyone.

Oh, Rae... my heart is aching for Bailey, you and the family. There are no words to help ease the pain you are feeling. I hope that knowing she is at peace now will give you some comfort.

 

[faerywings]

Oh, sweetheart Rae. I am so sorry. I have so many fragments of words and phrases and none of them seem to matter other than we all love you.
Please know that we all have you in our thoughts and prayers. Lean on us when you need us. Know that when you are unable to post here, we are still and always will be with you.

 

[mom2triplets04]

Said a prayer for Rae. Glad they found her but so sorry about her condition.

Checking in but it's not the best. I've been suffering with some headaches again. Yesterday I slept most of the day off and on.

Well, both my mom and sister called yesterday. My dad had a nose bleed which he couldn't stop the blood so he went to urgent care. While there his blood pressure spiked to over 200 and they called an abulance. So he's in the hospital. My mom was not allowed to go with him due to covid rules. So we are still waiting to hear what is going on. He has hyper tension and they kept him over night to run tests and try to get his blood pressure to a lower rate. My mom said they changed his medication so it could have made things worse. Been praying the doctors can help and he gets to go home today.

It's cold here 19 degrees and I just dropped off Myla at camp. She's gone all week which has certainly helped a bit.

Rae my heart is breaking for you. Praying for comfort for you and the family.

 

[scrap-genie]

Oh, Rae, I have no words that can comfort you but know we are all devastated for you and Bailey. Our thoughts will still be with you through this time.

Oh Rae, I'm SO sorry - I have no other words. I got on FB first thing and saw that she had been found, but didn't know this. My heart is going out to you and your family. I haven't been worth 2 cents worrying over Bailey and Kay's family.

Sending lots of love and hugs. If it's any help at all, I've been there and there's nothing worse than this. You'll heal somewhat, someday, but there will always be a hole in your heart. If you EVER need to talk, just PM me. I'm SO sorry - it's something that we NEVER want to happen to us and you'll find support from those who have suffered this loss, too. I know this isn't any help to you right now, but you're in a special place in my heart.

 

[taxed4ever]

I too am heartbroken for you and your family Rae!! No words can be said that will ease your pain!! Know that we are all here sending you lots of love!!!

 

[scribler]

Rae, I am so, so sorry. More prayers coming your way

 

[Cherylndesigns]

Oh my goodness, has there been ANY word????? I can't think about anything else right now.

Kay @BrightEyes how is your daughter doing?????

 

[tjscraps]

Rae my heart is breaking for you.

Hubby is home so that's caused some extra work in my world helping him with his feeding tube and getting him situated as he's had very little energy after last week in the hospital. The first couple days he didn't do much other than sleep but he went back to work yesterday and things are starting to become more normal (feeding tube and all). Now to fatten him up so he can get surgery to fix the problem and be 'fixed'!!

My scar has gotten better since last week as well, once the stitches came out I calmed down a bit - it's still not pretty and my smile is lopsided, but it's still early, and I'm researching scar care to figure out how to make it flat and not so bad. I'm hoping to get caught up in the forums this weekend too and do things a bit more 'normal'!!
