Very quick post before a very busy day.

Roger and I are off to work. Charlotte is home with Uncle Kolbey who is back from a quick trip to Florida.

She had a good day yesterday with a playdate and trip to the grocery store. Roger takes her back to the clinic today for a numbers check.

We need your help. Please go HERE to take a very brief 5 question survey. As some of you know, we have been throwing around the idea of a celebration/fundraising Cruise for Charlotte to take place sometime in the Fall of 2010. We need some input so please complete the survey (even if you think you might not go on the cruise). Thanks.

Gotta get to work...

What can I say? We just LOOOOOVE the hospital!
She got to clinic this afternoon and had a fever of 102. Needless to say, we are BACK in the hospital. We'll be there at least 48 hours so lots of plans on "hold". We will keep you updated. If you were signed up to watch Charlotte this week, it may not need to happen (then again, we might need you to hang out with her at MCV on Thursday evening. Have to check the schedule.).

If you missed the previous post, please make sure you read it and take the Cruise for Charlotte survey. We understand that many of you won't be able to particiapte, but we'd like to get a general idea of who would be interested. I saw some folks with school age kids comment about looking at a different time (not during the school year) and we may think about that...

That's it for now. I gotta go get ready to teach Roger's classes tonight.

Here we are again.
Maybe we should just set up shop here and never leave. Kind of frustrating. Charlotte actually looks and seems to feel pretty good. The Tylenol works pretty well to ease the aches and pains of the fever.
Timing is particularly bad as this week has so many things going on. If you're scheduled to watch Charlotte the next few days, it will most likely be at the hospital. If you're unable to come here, please let us know asap. Thursday in particular is very important.
So I caught Child Life just before they left and they had a laptop for me so I am connected (just in case you didn't realize).
The room is small and only designed for one bed which isn't a bad thing. And the DVD player works.
A lot of kids here today. Hopefully most of them are just dealing with colds and things that will let them go home soon. Come to think of it, I hope that for us too
I'm hoping we can get a visitor or two tomorrow morning (preferably with coffee!). Rachel is covering classes for me tonight and will relieve me tomorrow afternoon.
The cruise survey has garnered a great deal of interest. Already, we have dozens of answers. Thanks a lot. If you haven't taken the survey, please click on the link Rachel put up. Please go HERE to take a very brief 5 question survey. Thanks, Rog
