For those of you that haven't heard....our buyers backed out on Friday the 13th. It was a crazy and stress full last couple of days trying to relocate boxes and get the house back in order. Right now we don't have a plan other than our house is still on the market. We hope it sells soon!!
Yesterday was a CRAZY day!!!
Treasure Valley Septic came out to try and locate the opening for the septic tank and get it pumped. After looking for a good 30 minutes, he found it!! I was so happy because we didn't need another problem for potential buyers.....Fun job, EH?
So later that evening I was at R.S. and Monte called me at about 8:00 and said that Mindy was watching a movie in our room and had gotten into our nightstand drawer and opened the Tylenol container. Makayla was playing in there and had Monte's deodorant in her hand from the drawer so he was unsure if she had gotten into it too. I gave him the number to poison control and left for home. The nurse told him to take the girls to the E.R. so as soon as I got home we headed for West Valley. We were in the waiting room for an hour before they took us back to get the girls blood drawn. That was a very traumatic experience to say the least!! After the hard part was over, they took us to our room and we awaited the results. Thank goodness they both came back negative. The Dr said they take this so seriously because the ingredients in Tylenol will ruin the child's kidney if left untreated. We had a long night at the hospital but are so grateful that the girls were fine.
When Monte was a baby he got into some medication and almost died. Jeanne (my mother in law) was telling me more about it this morning. Int the ER they pumped this colored stuff into his body to see if the medicine would cling to it, but it wouldn't, the meds had gotten too far into the blood stream. Then they gave him some medicine that they give to drug addicts to keep them awake and she said he was bouncing off the walls. They told her to keep him awake or he could die so she said she was holding him bouncing him around trying to keep him awake but he was so tired. She said that dad was home tending to the other kids and she knew he needed another blessing. She tried to call people in the ward but could get a hold of anyone. Then around 7 pm the bishop came because he had heard Monte was in the hospital. She said it was truly a miracle, that he was literally dying and after the blessing he started recovering.
It really opens our eyes when emergencies happen. Our life has been stressful and full of uncertainty lately but it makes me humble to know that God loves us and gives us miracles everyday.

scary!!! i'm glad everything is okay! too bad about the house! i was planning our trip home and it consisted of coming to visit you! SELL THAT HOUSE!!
Oh I am so glad that they are okay. We had a similar experience with Zander. We gave him some cough medicine that was intended for infants(before it was banned) I would have told you he was dying. He was throwing up so violently he stopped breathing and turned blue. We rushed him to the ER at like 4am and by the time the doctor could see him he was grinning ear to ear! I am so glad everything was okay!!
