Hi, everybody,
Sorry to let you all know that Kate is in the hospital. She was admitted yesterday because of the pneumonia.
She is in good spirits, and she is feeling Ok, but she still has a fever.
Now she needs our prayers for a speedy recovery.
I will keep you all updated as soon as I have more news.

Please tell her I am thinking about her. I was very concerned about the fever and I private messaged her on Friday. I am glad she is in the hospital to receive the round the clock care I think she needs to whip this bug down and out.

Love and hugs to Kate

Kate-

Hoping your stay in the hospital is short and comfortable. Hoping that fever goes down stat too!

Will be thinking of you......

[Andrea Barnett Budin]

A THOUGHT ABOUT HOSPITAL STAYS... Hope someone picks this up for Kate. When my husband was in the hospital this past summer he could not wait to come home because the noise in the halls, cming from other patients screaming, nurses, rolling whatevers was making him crazy. He could not sleep.

So, I made a mental note -- BRING A GOOD HEADSET, PREFERABLY W/MUSIC, BUT EVEN BLOCKING OUT THE NOISE -- TO REST EASY...

You must get your sleep, Kate. It is healing.

I know someone is incessantly pestering you to take your bld pressure, temperature, collect urine, poke and prod. At least if you can create your own peaceful environment w/a headset -- you are better able to sleep and rest comfortably!

Just a suggestion I wish I'd thought of before Paul came home, and while he was fighting to get out of the hospital. He is an impossible patient. I know you, Kate, are the perfect patient, but we all need some guidance here.

Before my mastec, a friend suggested I bring my own pillow. I did and it was a comfort, w/my leopard print pillowcase. Another something to make the best of a necessary part of getting better.

With love,

Andi http://cdn-cf.aol.com/se/smi/0201e05fca/06

[Kimberly Lewis]

Dear Kate - I know being in the hospital can be depressing for many reasons. Please remember you are there to get better. You are in my prayers, and I know you will be heating up the boards very shortly! Get well soon...with love, Maryann

[RhondaH]

Kate is an incredible person, she called me from the hospital. How unselfish is that?? Thinking of all of us while she is getting pumped with IV's!! I was so thrilled to see that you girls had already started threads for needed prayers and support. Well Ladies, count me in on those prayers, I have been praying extra hard since she said she was sick.

So Kate, if you can hear me...get better and come back to us, we surely miss your smiling face on our posts you send. I feel lost without hearing what you have to say.

And Kate, thanks for thinking of us while you are so sick!! You are an Angel!!>>Believe51

[Soccermom]

Dearest Kate,
Count me in on the many prayers and well wishes. You are certainly one well loved woman !!

Many warm hugs,Marcia

[StephN]

Sorry your fever was not better, but sure hope it has gone down by today.

Now Kate -
You must listen to what my grandmother used to say about pneumonia. She called it "the OLD people's friend." You do not fit that category, so I am sending you best wishes that you get UNfriendly with that pneumonia bug right away!

What Andi says about the hospital noise is really true - I got so little sleep, even in the intensive unit, when I had the 2 surgeries on my head on 2006. I had them put me in a corner room AWAY from the nurses station as that is one of noisiest areas, especially in the middle of the night! Even with my door closed I had to ring the bell to shush them more than once.

[Margerie]

I had a 5 day hospital stay after reconstruction- those foam earplugs were great!!

[nitewind]

Praying hard for Kate. She sure doesn't need this. Thank you Karla for posting the information and make sure you let her know that we are all praying for her to get back here quick!

Gentle hugs, Kate

[Bev]

Get well soon Kate! Bev
