Hello my precious friends. I have missed you all so very much. Thanks for all the sweet emails, and comments of concern on my blog. Big heartfelt thanks to those of you who called me-Marsha, Sharon, Donetta, and Angie. I love you all more than words could ever express. I started getting really sick on Friday, nauseous, throwing up, hurting all over, and could not breathe very well. Lovebug took me to the emergency room, my blood sugars were running over 600. When we got there they immediately put me on an IV drip, I was severely dehydrated. They started giving me insulin through the IV every hour. They ran blood work, and took a urine sample. The urine sample showed a severe urinary tract infection, so they started giving me strong antibiotics through my IV. My blood work was all out of control, so they kept me in the hospital. I was so very sick, and weak. Lovebug, of course, hardly ever left my side. I got released this morning, so I am finally home. Woo Hoo!! I am still on antibiotics, dealing with this infection, and still weak, but God has been right by my side, and continues to be. Be blessed everyone, I am now going to try to get caught up on all of your blogs, and my own blog. I love you all with all of my heart.

Hi Denise!!!!!!!
I was wondering what happened to you!! I always look forward to seeing your comments, so I knew you must have been away when I didn't see you, or even read any new posts from you!!
I'll be praying for a speedy recovery for you!!!! Urinary tract infections are not to be taken lightly. Antibiotics work so fast, so I'm sure you are feeling a little better by now.
HUGS to you!!

Oh my goodness, Denise!!
I was so concerned about you!! I knew something was the matter because you have usually posted before I even get up in the morning--and that's really early!!
I've been praying for you not knowing what the problem was, but God did, and He has taken care of you!!
Rest and take it easy!! No wonder your blood sugar was so high with being so dehydrated!
So glad you're home and back with us!

So glad to hear, Denise, not of what you have been through, but that you are now okay. I began to feel concern several days ago and started to pray, then began to dig deeper today. If i had had your phone number, I would've called. I knew that something must be wrong.
You are so very very very loved, and that Lovebug of yours is too. What a guy!
(((((((Huge TEXAS-SIZED HUGS))))))))) LALEE
So glad you are doing better and are back home! Will continue to keep you in my prayers.
i was thinking of you today. i meant to email you since i hadn't heard from you in a while, but i got sidetracked as usual. i'm so sorry you were/are sick. i'm glad you're back in the comfort of your own home to fully heal. i've missed seeing you around blogland :)
I'm so sorry, but I am glad that you are better. I'm sure the Lord had an army of prayers coming up for you.

Oh Denise,
I am so sorry to hear this! I was wondering what happened to you. Thank God that you are okay. That lovebug of yours is so wonderful! He is always right there to take care of you, huh?
I will be praying for you friend!
Take care of yourself and get some rest.
I am so glad you are back, Thank you Lord for being with my friend. Gosh, I got so worried.
Denise,
Praise the Lord, You are all right. I was worried about you.
Since Marsha, Sharon, Donnette, and Angie know how to contact you, maybe you can give one of them access to your blog. That way, she can give us an update on you the next time.
Love ya,
Jean
you are amazing. You come home from the hospital this morning and are on your blog already. Wishing you good health
So glad you are home! I've missed you! I've been praying!!
Oh Denise Dear, you have all of us very worried about you, because of course, we know that you are a daily blogger and all of a sudden, you stopped blogging.
Yeah, I connected to Sharon, asking about you, assuming you and her are friends. And Sharon is very kind to get back to me and assured me to look for an answer.
Oh, we are so happy to know that you are doing good now. We are praying for you, Sis. We love you.
Glad you are back home!
I am so glad that they took such great care of you. We missed you....as you can tell. :)
Love you girl!

Denise,
You had me so worried. I knew something was up. I thought I was going to have to drive to Tennessee to find you.
I'm so glad you are back home and on the way to recovery.
You were so missed my friend,
Love you!

So sorry to hear you were in the hospital Denise! Glad your home now!
I have been praying for you and am so glad to hear that you are at home. I will pray that the Lord will continue to heal you. My dad has also been going through the high 600+ blood sugar this past week, so I can identify through him as to what you are going through. Keep us all posted on your progress. Know that you are loved as a dear sister in the Lord!
Oh my - I'm so relieved to read this post and know you're home....we all love you and pray for you, Shortybear. What a blessing you have in your sweet hubby! Hope as you rest, you'll start to feel better soon.
Hugs,
Vicki
