My friend Katie posted something on her Facebook today...it is a link to a blog that just absolutely broke my heart, http://www.stakerzxposed.blogspot.com/. I don't know these people, but the last few posts have been about a sweet little boy who is about 3 weeks younger than little Avery. Last Saturday, he drowned in the bathtub, and they have had a long, hard road to his recovery. They are still at Primary Children's Medical Center, waiting to see what the effects of this tragic accident will be. It is breaking my heart.
Last week, my sweet little 5 week old niece, Kenadee, was at PCMC for 4 days with RSV. In November, my 5 year old cousin, Brilee, was rushed from Rexburg down here with a severe case of pneumonia. In December of 2007, my cousin, Alyssa, who was less than a year old at the time, spent about 3 weeks there, also with a severe case of pneumonia.
I have spent way more time than I have ever wanted to at Primarys, and I just want to express how grateful I am to live by this state-of-the-art hospital. They have saved the lives of more than one of my family members, and countless other tiny, helpless children. One thing that I love about IHC is that it will never turn anybody away who cannot pay or who doesn't have insurance.
Thank goodness for Primary Children's Medical Center.
