    Sending butterflies to cool her temperature, and to bring peace and calm and good feelings.

    How old is the older niece? Does she understand what's going on? If anyone can spend some one on one time with her, I think that would be good. She is probably going through a lot of emotions just like you and your sister are, but she's probably too young to understand or express them.

    My thoughts and butterflies are with all of you,

    The butterflies are within you.

    Noel is 10. She kinda understands but it is still hard for her. We are trying to work something out. Either coming and visiting me for a week or going to my brother's. His house is all kid. He has three of he's own. And he is a great dad. And my sister in law is a good mom I think they would be good for Noel right now. Besides she is starting to have some troubles in school. So it might be good for her to get some attention.
    Mom and Baby are resting right now. Baby is on IV antibiotics and fluids. I sent your butterflies to them!

    Oh MAN Brandi!
    Something is not right- as if ya'll didn't know that...
    Scary scary thing not being able to figure it out. UGH!
    And inserting my .02 here. I think your neice going to stay w/your bro sounds like a fab idea. Esp. if they are a grounded family who can show her some stability. She prolly needs that right now.
    Ok, back to prayers for the little pumpkin!

    Sorry to hear that, Brandi.

    If your niece ends up with some chronic condition, there's not going to be any normal again. I understand your sister's desire for that for her other daughter, but the reality is that Noele's sister is sick with some unknown thing. If your sister can't be there for Noele, it would be best if someone else who cares about her can be. What a wonderful thing for your brother to offer.

    I'm so sorry your niece is back in the hospital. Maybe the doctor's can determine what's causing her problems.

    My thoughts are with your family and Lorelei...

    I am not a mom to humans but when my hubby was in the hospital I felt so neglectful to my fur-babies! I would think that if your bros has other kids of his own that would be a good distraction for Noel and a relief to your sister...both could have daily phone chats...but also your sister will hopefully have a little sense of comfort knowing her older daughter is well cared for and busy!

    ((((((((((Brandi, Lorelei, and Noel)))))))))))

    Warm fuzzies to the girls - Lorelei to get well, and a stable family for Noel. Hope her doctors can figure out what's making Lorelei sick. Going to her uncle's sounds like a good plan for Noel, especially if she's having trouble at school. Poor lass may understand on one level, but on another, she's thinking "what about me?"
