All is well with my niece

BréI got the following email from my mother this morning.

Just talked to Nee and she said Bre’s temp is way down and she’s acting pretty normal. Nee’s giving her Tylenol and her Amoxycillin as well as PediaLite (which she’s sucking down like a cold beer on a hot day). They did get a little sleep last nite…not a lot but a little. Just wanted to let ya know, she’s feeling more like herself today. If I hear anything else, I’ll let ya know.

It’s good to know that all is well with my little niece.  She just celebrated her first birthday a couple of weeks ago.

Sad news about my niece

I got a phone call from my mother earlier. My niece has been running a 103 fever or so. While my sister was at the gym, her husband was at home with Bré. All was going well and suddenly she had a seizure. She has been taken by ambulance to one of the hospitals in Indy. I’m waiting to hear what the doctors say.

UPDATE: I just received the following text from my brother:

She appears to be ok now, at hospital, seizure induced by fever, 103 deg, came down a little. Getting a cathitor right now.

UPDATE2: Everything is ok with Bré.  She’s been released from the hospital.  Apparently this was all due to a bad virus.

2-Year Anniversary

Gwen & Jared Today is January 14th.  It was two years ago today that my lovely wife and I were married.  It was a lovely day out, not too cold for January.  As the day went on and we were at the reception, doing some outdoor pictures, it became cold.  Fortunately, there weren’t many pictures to take. 

Here we are, 2 years later and still going strong.  While we’ve been married for 2, we’ve been together for 4, though it feels longer than that. 

Here’s to us on our anniversary.  Cheers!

Uncle Jar

I got a phone call yesterday afternoon from my mom and sister.  It seems that my sister is pregnant, due in January, and that I’m going to be an uncle.  I’m already an uncle; my half-brother has two daughters, but I haven’t seen them in years.  So this will be exciting.  It’s too bad that I won’t be able to be there to see the baby and what not.  Hopefully I’ll be able to go home and see the baby shortly after he/she is born.  I’m looking forward to being an uncle again.
