Updates

 5 yr old not doing well, having strokes, seizures, cardiac arrest. Mother won't leave room has blacked out 3 times.. next time they will transport her whether she wants to go or not as she's at a children's hospital. Hasn't been eating even though Son 2 has been making sure she has the money to eat. He's struggling because they are not married so he can't be in ICU with them. 

Nephew had his last test about his lungs, gets all results in Nov. He's holding steady.

Friend's cousin's hubby sees cardiologist today, he has congestion heart failure and some other issues like COPD. Hoping for plan of treatment.

MIL has congestion heart failure, got 40 lbs of water weight off and she's doing better... late 80s.

Hubby's uncle had heart issues and was in hospital twice for it.

Hubby's younger brother had heart attack but doing okay even though he is battling his wife (retired nurse) as he doesn't like any medical treatment.

E's Dad, who has helped us with many things especially advice is in Mexico having knee replacement (half the cost of US, Amish don't have insurance). Surgery was yesterday and we still have not heard from E as we know he will call us to talk to his wife plus we will do the rounds of telling the rest of the family.

We had a 18 month old die in Amish community. Snuck out of the house was supposed to be napping and ran behind a van that was backing up. Died instantly.Driver thought they hit the dog and got out and found the child. She had just dropped off his sibling as he is disabled and gets picked up for school with a van. She's in hospital as she could not cope with it. The Amish man we bought our house from said between the ages of 1-2 yrs they have problems with the children running up to cars, moving buggys, up behind horse (and get kicked) equipment and he was thankful that Hubby always asks where the kids are or tells them to go to Da or Ma, older sibling. 

I am not sure if anyone is getting any rest, might be passing out due to exhaustion.
