i just talked with luke for awhile.
the way he described trisha's condition just breaks my heart!! obviously she is going through the worst of it, but his pain in watching her in pain is just super sad, too! since trisha's blood pressure has been super high, they have her on "magnesium". this causes her to have horrible, mirgrain headaches, and her face is super hot. she's got the cervix softner stuff out(which was horribly painful!), and they started her on patosin. that is causing really bad cramps/contractions. luke says she just lays in bed with tears running down her face.
jinner is with them at the hospital, too. my mom is dying to be there, but doesn't have a ride since my dad just left for seattle yesterday. if nothing happens today, they will start it all over again tomorrow morning....dreaded thought...
i'll keep ya posted!!

Left this on your facebook too...
The magnesium and cervix thing was sooo hard on my sister in law too. I had pitocin and it sucks!!! I hope she can get an epidural soon, but I know it's really hard because there's so much to balance with not being able to let labor go on forever and the epidural can slow things down...argh! Poor thing! Please let her know that we are praying fervently! God's love is all around them - even in the midst of such incredible pain!
oh...poor trisha! i had a hard time with the pitocin too...why haven't they given her an epidural? do they know why her protein levels were so high? i wonder what caused that.please keep your blog updated...i hope she is ok soon.
