Quick Mira update

I am so sorry! I just realized this morning that I forgot to update on Mira. After being given a room "on observation" at Gillette when Daddy took her in to the clinic on Wednesday, her status was changed to "admitted" on Friday morning. There wasn't really anything critically wrong they were chasing, just a vague not-quite-right. During the nights they were giving her a little bit of blow-by oxygen, and upper her respiratory cares to her "yellow" zone (which we had started at home before she went in.)

By Saturday morning they were ready to discharge her, calling half an hour before the girls and Owen and I were heading out to the Festival of Nations...in the van. Daddy, of course, needs the van to get Mira as he can't fit Reuben, Krassi, and Gloria (the kids who were not coming with me) - oh! And Krassi's wheelchair and then Mira and her wheelchair - into our other car (a Jetta.)

So...after some brain-scrambling, we decided to ALL get into the van and Daddy dropped us off at the Festival (yay! Don't have to pay to park or try to park the van downtown!) and while we (with the addition of Gloria to reduce Dad's entourage at the hospital) enjoyed ourselves...

Bobbi got to help work at the Bulgarian cultural exhibit again this year.

Eating! Gyros...

...arepa, and all sorts of other tasty things!

...Dad went with Krassi and Reuben downtown to pick up Mira, bring her home, help Grandma get lunch, and then had a few hours in the afternoon to work outside (they got Reuben's fountain up and going for the summer!)...

...before piling Reuben, Krassi and Mira into the van to drive back downtown to pick us all up.

Anyway - she's home. Not doing fantastic, but hanging in there just fine - nothing at this point that requires medical care - it's just the way she runs, and we're glad to have our girly back here with us.
