Jon really ment those words at the altar in sickness and in health........If you didn't already know this i spent 2 weeks in the hospital (not including the short time giving birth to Titus :) ) They are still not sure what exactly happened......some how my appendix decided to be on the wrong side and i had a bunch of abscesses all around (side note what im telling you may not all be right because i was kinda in and out of it). So they went in and removed my appendix and all the abscesses. during this whole time they werepumping me full of anit biotics and non of the pain meds worked for me or they made me get sick...They thought i was doing better and put me on full liquid diet......but shortly after we found out my insides wouldnt work! So i spent all day throwing up green vile (sorry TMI)......then i was back to just ice chips.
What i learned from all of this
1.) Jon took in sickness and in health to a hole new level......he had to help me shower, he pumped me 2 times a day to keep some of my breast milk supply up, he slept on a roll away bed every night, he helped me in and out of bed, he sat in the bathroom while i had diarrhea, being a mom to Titus cuz i couldn't
, and put cold wash cloths on my body cuz i kept sweating.....there is so much more but i can't remember it all!

my dad reading to titus at the hospital , my mom was at the hospital almost everyday taking care of me and Titus! my mom cried with me cuz i couldn't handle everything that was happening to me. My parents took Titus for some of the nights because Jon couldn't take care of me and Titus over night it got to be to much for him and i wouldn't sleep every time Titus woke up.
3.) my brother and sister in-law are beyond awesome....they also had their fare share of Titus at night! Jamie would come and sit with me so i could kinda feel like a mom having Titus there.

5.) it was extremely hard for me to ask for help especially for stuff i never in a million years thought i would ever ask help for (like asking my husband to wash my hair for me or take me to the bathroom!
6.) my friend kathleen is also another person who has done way to much she also stayed at the hospital to help me and Titus and my mom while Jon did some work (someone has to make the money) good thing she is a nurse cuz she was there the day of the throwing up green vile, and for trying to get me to go pee.....i was so out of it i was so embarrassed later thinking about it
7.) jon's parents all so helped us so much too they took Sedona (you know that's a hard thing to do:)) and cleaned our house for us and took me home from the hospital.....they also bought us diapers (since cloth diapers were not going to work so well in the hosptial and at other peoples houses) and formula since i had to pump and dump cuz of all the drugs...
8.) we have the best son ever!!! 
and the cutest!!! He did so well being so little and moved from home to home and hospital everyday!!! It was hard for him to transfer to formula but doing ok now....im really working on my milk supply so he can get a little bit of it still! Pray for that to multiply!!!
