I have never recieved a phone call that scared me more than the one I got yesterday. My mom called to tell me my niece Baylee who was the first grandchild born into our family (she was sneekie and got here 5 days before Zach), had been in a car accident on her way to school in Casa Grande and was being "AIREVAC" to Maricopa Medical Center Trama Unit. That's it, that's all the info we got. So I went into panic mode, trying to hurry to meet my mom & go to the hospital. Then I realized I had no baby sitters!!! How does that happen when I have 3 that live with me. AHHHHH So Grandma Juanita came to the rescue, and I dropped off the Abby & Aspen and my mom pick me up, for a crazy ride to the hospital. Me nor my mom had been to this hospital before nor new exactly where it was. Soooo a few wrong turns and we finally found it. By then my sister had called with a little more info. She had gotten to the crash seen before the airevac, and new she was awake and a little responsive but had alot of blood coming from her face. As we got into the "ER" the Dr was there and telling us she was lucky, just a concussion, broken nose, 3 inch laseration across the top of her chin that goes clean through to the inside of her mouth, broken rib that also punctured her spleen! WHOOOOOO!!! Yes she is very lucky. But really that is alot to deal with then all the pain she is going through just from the force of her face smashing into the steering wheel, and the impact of the accident. So we spent the entire day at the hospital. Today we went back with the kids to visit and keep her spirits up. She si doing really well. The major complication is trying to eat and drink with a lip bigger than Angelia Jolie's the swelling is so severe that it has cracked her lip in 4 places. Nor can she open her mouth or talk very well, and they want her eating and drinking before she goes home!!! But if that is the least of our worries, I'll take it. If your a little squeemish this picture of her face is yuckie!! We love you Baylee and our family is continually praying for your recovery.
