The McNamara's

A compilation of our crazy lives in the McNamara household! We have been married over six years and have two kids. Grace who is four and Joey who is two and a half. Our lives are crazy and we don't take much time to breathe in our house, but that's just the way we like it, exciting!

Grandma's new machinery and some other misc. things!

Hello!
Gram's nurse came today and she now has some equipment at home. She will do her blood pressure, pulse ox and weight herself on a daily basis and it will transmit over the telephone right to the VNA. Also, if she is not feeling well there is a button that she can push that will immediately alert the nurses at the VNA site. Her pulse ox was ninety nine percent today! That's awesome, I was thrilled to hear that.
Onto a few other things now.
I would like it if everyone reading this would add my brother in law Matt to their prayer lists. Matt has been battling a kidney stone for the past week. Sounds quite simple, but it was not in this case. Matt has endured a lot of pain this past week and a lot of trips to the ER. They placed a stent last Friday and he was still unable to pass his stone and in a lot of pain. He was admitted yesterday, and they did surgery today. He's still in pain, but we are praying that he's on the road to recovery. This hasn't been easy for him or his wife Jody, let alone his parents or the rest of his family. Please pray for Matt's recovery and for his wife and children, they could use the prayers right now. Matt has lost some weight b/c he has been unable to eat or drink anything in a week from what I'm told. My mother in law has been keeping us posted on Matt's condition and was happy to report tonight that surgery was over!

A happier note.........Grace is enjoying Irish Dance Class. She comes home happy and jumping around. She doesn't say much about what's she's learned but did show me her "duck walk". I'm glad she's having fun.

I got news from Aunt Lori today that Matthew got his permit..........way to go Matthew!!! I feel sooooooooo old that Matthew is old enough to drive. Sixteen, huh? Scary! Gram was choked up when she was telling me tonight too.

Well, it's getting way past my bedtime!
