Shelley's been in the hospital the whole time we've been here in Utah. You may remember from this post that she was in the hospital only 15 months ago and 15 months before that too (no post to refresh your memory for that visit). Between hips breaking and emergency surgeries, this girl needs her own suite in Davis Hospital!
Here's the story about this year's visit...
Friday night around 10 pm, she called my mom to take her to the ER because she had been in terrible pain and was so sick.
They got her in quite quickly and discovered that she had an obstructed bowel. She has a lot of scar tissue on her insides because she's had so many surgeries throughout her life (they started when she was only 3) and some of the scar tissue had adhered to her intestines and made the intestine kink basically. They were hoping it would unkink itself but that wasn't the case. They did surgery on Sunday and luckily didn't have to remove any of her bowel. She's in the hospital for probably 7-10 days.
Here's Shelley a few days after surgery with some of her favorite visitors.
And this is Jill ratting Shelley's hair. This story goes back to when Jill had Tink (or maybe Reagan?), and she kept ratting her own hair higher and higher every time someone wanted to take a picture. The funny things people do on drugs (legal drugs of course).
We are really hoping she'll get feeling better soon and can start recovering in her own bed!
