Garth On Hold


I know that you are waiting anxiously for my Garth photos but, something came before Garth the last two days.


Kaycee - great granddaughter - one of the twins that was born three months premature has been in the hospital.  NO, she's not in jail!!  LOL


She woke up Monday morning with 104 temp and was rushed to the hospital.  They admitted her with pneumonia - they thought.  Later in the day, another physician diagnosed her with a lung disease associated with the steroids used to develop her lungs as a preemie.

Then today, the lung specialist came in and basically said it was like asthma????  Her lungs have scar tissue from the drugs given her as a preemie and she had some kind of a virus and that's where it landed.

But, good news is that she is home and doing well.  She will just have to have alot of breathing treatments and inhalers.  You hate to think of a baby going thru that starting this young, but if they would not have used the drugs, she wouldn't even be here today.

They will be doing tests on Laycee also because she probably has the same thing.

But, tonight, she is home going strong.

Now, to Garth!!!!!

OMG - it was an awesome concert going about 2 1/2 hours of constant songs - mostly oldies but goodies. I told Tiffany it's kinda crazy to buy seats and then stand up the whole time but the electricity in the room made you stand and clap and sing the whole show.


I think it's rather rare that every song he sang the whole audience sang also - every word to every song.  Everyone knew his songs - the young and the old alike.  The bottom left photo was "The Dance" and everyone had their phones lit up. 


Tricia was very good also.  Garth had done back-to-back concerts on Saturday night so he was a little hoarse, but he was still SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good!

So, if I can get my hands on tickets for this next weekend, I would go again in a heart beat.  We had great seats and the big screen TVs were wonderful.

OK, Judy, now calm down and get back to normal.

Enjoy!

Judy

  10. So sorry about your little one. Lots and lots of the kids I see have this type of thing from the treatment they received as preemies. Many of them end up outgrowing it so that is a positive. Little Buddy had it too and now rarely uses his nebulizer, actually he hasn't had to use it for a year.
    Hugs and so glad you had fun at the concert.

  15. I am so sorry that your granddaughter was hospitalized but thank God that we have the treatments available today that we have. It is always scary to see them there.

  19. How wonderful to get out and enjoy yourself, Judy. So glad you enjoyed the concert.

    That sweet baby ... glad she's on the mend. Our daughter was born premature and was in the hospital the first month of her life, due to her lungs being under-developed. She's had a few issues through the years, used breathing machines for a season when she was a youngster, but she is is well today, at the age of 28 and soon to have her first child. I'll keep your little ones in my prayers.

  21. I hope and pray that your sweet Kaycee continues to improve every day. What a little sweetie she is. The concert sounds like it was so much fun. The Dance is my all time favorite Garth Brooks song and after all these years, I still can't listen to it without crying. Now that's a song!!

  23. Judy, thank goodness Kaycee is doing well; that must have been very scar for all of you, especially when the diagnoses kept changing!

    I can feel your excitement for Garth all the way to Greece!! The concert looks like an amazingly entertaining night!

  26. Oh, that must have been scary with the baby! I'm glad they were able to figure out what the problem was, so she is able to have treatment. I will keep her in my prayers...

  27. I am so sorry to hear that Kaycee was in the hospital and now that she'll have to have an inhaler and breathing treatments. Poor little thing! I'm wondering how in the world do you teach a baby how to use an inhaler?! Phil had asthma when he was little, but he was diagnosed around age 5, so it wasn't too hard to teach him how to use the inhaler. So glad to hear you had such an awesome time at the Garth concert - you definitely needed and deserved some fun.
