    AmyJo, I was so glad to read recent FB posts about Kendall doing better. Payers continue.



    Lisa, I'm with you...any small body of water is good. That was a great shot. I'm partial to the pics we take ourselves. Feels like forever since I've been to Hideaway and the bay. Come on spring! Yeah, I know we've barely gotten into winter, but that's my least favorite month, hands down.

    Kendall has had a relapse of sorts.  They have had to step her pressure back down and are raising it again very slowly this time.  If this does not work this time they will in all likely hood be putting in a permanent shunt.  This is something that none of the doctors want to happen and we certainly do not want this to happen.  Just keep praying for Kendall and they whole family.  One of her little sisters has strep throat.  Kendall is still very scared but trying to keep her spirits up in spite of her fears.  Thanks to everyone that is praying for her.  I love you all.

    Maybe this will help her :)

    Hi all you lovely Beachettes,

    Elisimo, sending hugs and prayers for Kendall, she is in my thoughts.

    Lisa and Mum the pics are wonderful. The beaches are calling me, it is so cold here that I do not want to leave the house, so I guess I won't.  Mary, I feel the same as you, "Hurry Spring."

    Hugs and Prayers, Cheryl

    I love the pictures of the beaches.  Wish I was at one of them now, it is so cold here and is expected to stay that way for a while.  I would love to be in the blue lounge chair with a cool drink and a sunny sky.  Thank you Lisa and Mum for sharing these wonderful pictures.

    For those who are praying for Kendall, my #1DGD, she had to have surgery yesterday to replace the temporary drain because they can only be in so long before the risk of infection become too great so they replaced it with a new one so that would give them more time to step her pressure up slowly.  The tried to go too fast before and she was having too much trouble with the rate of increase.  They do not want to put in a permanent shunt unless there is absolutely no other choice so they are trying one more time with the temporary one.  Please pray that this works and that she has complete healing.

    Take care everyone. AJ
