Whoa...it sure has been a while since I've been on N4M!! Yeah, we are all moved and settled, then Gabe came home on a surprise leave! He literally called us from his connecting airport and said he needed to be picked up in two hours. He is now in Little Creek for music training. Yep, he got switched to Navy vocalist. He'll be there for 6 months then will choose a band. He thinks he wants to go to Japan, but we'll see. How is Stu doing? Do you hear from him often? Hope you and all your loved ones are well!!

Thank you for the prayers. Just thought I would give you a qucik update.. Duran called on Saturday and they are planning on sending him to Tripler army hospital in Hawaii. He didnt have a date yet, but hopefully soon. Hopefully they will get him the tests and treatment he needs. I hate being this far away from him. I dont know when I have ever been so stressed in my life. Thanks again for the prayers and support and I will keep you posted.

Hi Patti...
Things have bee so crazy I don't even know where to start. Duran is not do very well at all :( The doctors of course are not working nearly fast enough to figure out what is wrong with him. The blackout episodes are happening more frequently and now he is have some seizure activity with them. I guess the good news is that his blood work came back perfectly fine.. bad news is we are back to square one. When I spoke to him yesterday the dr. thinks now (this is about the 3rd or 4th... "I think you have"....) Neurocardiogenic Syncope, which is where is blood presssure is too high or too low or his heart rythm is irregular and is causing the blackouts. The REALLY scary part is it can cause cardiac arrest and sudden death. ( (I don't even like typing that) Of course the are scheduing him for MORE tests. So far the EKG's are picking up a murmur and some irreguarities but the CAT scan came back ok. Please say a prayer for him. Hope all is well with you and your family. How is Stu enjoying his trip???

Hey Patti...I do remember you. I hope your daughter didn't get into too much trouble. Mike's been gone for 8 days. I got to talk to him Sunday and he's doing really well. Thank you so much for contacting me. I'm really excited about going to GL to see Mike graduate. How's your son doing?

Hi Patti,
I do have the address, but I am very leary about putting it on the computer.. even email. I am probably being overly cautious.. but better safe than sorry :) I will gladly share it with you, but I would rather give it to you over the phone. Let me know when is a good time to call you, or you can call me.
Hugs,
Kim

Wow! Thanks for all the info! I know Cody had wanted to go to Sears Tower, but I will definately check into the Chase Tower! Do you remember how much the division shirts are? I hate carrying cash, but it looks like I'm going to have to.

I won't be going for the overnight, but am trying to talk my husband into going for part of Saturday. I have Fibromyalgia and had a bad flare up last weekend. I am hoping my husband will agree to go because we both like blues and bbq.

I hope you are having a great week.

Awe, I'm glad he likes it, hopefully Cody will like it more in 4 weeks when he's done with basic. And I'm going to his PIR, hopefully it will be nicer there then it will be here in July! Any good tips for the trip? I could use any advice!

I don't know for sure if I will be there or not. There are 3 Navy mom's from Tulsa going Friday and staying all day Saturday also. I have to talk to my husband before I decide. Have a good weekend.

Hi Patti,
Duran got a cell phone from the Nex there in Guam. I think that's what most of the guys there have. I believe it's a pay as you go phone. As I understand that's about the most inexpensive way to go besides Vonage. I can't wait for Duran to call me so I can ask if he knows Stuart. I met another Houston mom on here... Rebecca.. and it's sounds like Duran knows her son. It's so nice to meet another Houston mom!
