Life in the last 36 hrs....

We have had the quite the eventful past 36 hrs... This all started Sunday Am.. Brinton was feeling a little bit cold and was not eating as well as she normally does.  So we bundled her up and continued with our day.  Around lunchtime after Kent and the boys got home from church we noticed more cooling.  I took a short nap and was awoken to Kent being rather concerned about Brintons temp.  We called our docs. on call number and they sent us to the ER immediately.  LGH ran tons of tests including a spinal tap.  All things came back not showing a whole lot of answers.  She was then air lifted to Hershey Med. to better figure things out.  We ended up at the Med Center around 10ish.  They proceeded to run more tests including an MRI to check for stroke like symptoms.  Due to the MRI she would put on a breathing machine to enable sedation.  Monday Am came quickly with no new symptoms and no new answers.  Her temp came back by Monday late morning.  So she continued to be on the breathing machine and administered tons of antibiotics.  This is all to aid in the fighting of infection process.  Currently, she is having an MRI, MRA, MRV, and a MRI of her neck being done.  This will totally rule out any neurological issues or show us where they might be.  Brinton's breathing tube will be coming out and she will be getting a feeding tube to start eating again!

What have learned through this entire process... IS TO TRUST GOD!!! Some one told me the other day... if you don't give God control He will just take it! This is sooo true.  When we were given news that she might have had a stroke or that they don't know what is wrong with her nothing was left. It was just Kent and Lauren and God.  He is faithful and always there...
