Grand Baby Update

I wrote in my post yesterday our grand baby (and her Mama) were being transported (by ambulance) to the IWK in Nova Scotia...where she is having heart surgery on Thursday.

They had barely gotten outside the city limits when Annabelle began choking...so much so the EMT were required to pull over and aspirate her very quickly.  The decision was made to turn back...return to our hospital...where she was fully assessed...and they quickly decided the safest plan of action was to have the Life Flight plane fly her and her Mama to the IWK.  (her Dad had left via vehicle...and was there to meet them when they arrived.

One of the amazing EMT snapped a few photos of our girl before she made her way to her flight...


As they were transporting her from the ambulance to the Life Flight plane at our airport...



A quick twenty five minute flight...met by an ambulance at the airport in Halifax...and they arrived safely at the hospital....where Annabelle was assessed and admitted.  She was having difficulty breathing...so oxygen was administered and she was a bit more comfortable.

Uncertain what today will hold for them...heart surgery is still scheduled for Thursday still..praying nothing changes in the meantime.

Daughter spent the night at Ronald McDonald House...an amazing "home away from home" for out of town family with sick children.   Since grand dog Benson is with them...her Dad is staying with family friends...but he & her Mama are at Annabelle's side at every possible moment.

Please keep our dear little one in your thoughts and prayers...
