December 13th: day +26


I'M HOME!!!!!!! The doctors came in this morning and said we are going home. I could not wait. I'm still throwing up and will have to be on TPN(IV food) at home but it is HOME. The pictures are of from the first day I entered the hospital on July 2nd and today as I left. Hopefully I will never have to go back. I will have several appointments per week but they will all be out-patient and no more long stays. This stay was five weeks to the day. I still have to be cautious and cannot have lots of visitors or be around crowds. Please call before stopping over and talk with mom and dad first please. We will continue to keep the blog updated. It's been a long five months, thank you for everything that has been done. Love, Trent.

HEY TRENT!!! YAHOO!!!! We are so excited and happy for you and your family! What a wonderful Christmas present!! What a wonderful gift at anytime of the year! That is so cool....Sorry we are a bit behind the times...we've had a few bits of "excitement" around here - and haven't been keeping up like we usually do...but you have always been in our prayers and thoughts every day!!! Tell your mom to give me a call when things calm down... we missed our lunch date - but it was for a very good reason! So, we'll just have to make it up. I hope that things are going well for you now that you are home - and don't make your mom work too hard k? We love you all - MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! And we are praying that your new year is BLESSED with all the wonderful & fabulous things your family deserves!! You are all truly an inspiration to everyone - especially us! Thanks for your great example of courage, endurance and mostly faith! What a blessing you have all been to us! Keep it up!!! We love you!!

Hey Trent,

I finally got to get on the computer. It has been a way long time.

You're lucky you saw the Jazz guys. Those are my favorite players on the Jazz. Okur shoots the best three pointers. And Carlos Boozer makes good dunks. I wish I was there with you. Oh well, at least you got to meet them. Are they nice?

One night my Dad let Casey walk around without a diaper on because he is potty training. That night when Brandon got in bed there was pee all over. Then Gregory went to bed, and he had pee and poo. I was last to get into my bed, and was feeling very lucky because my bed was not used as a potty, BUT..... there was a big pee spot on my bed too. My parents say he was acting like a dog, and marking his territory. Pretty gross I think. Then mom was totally ticked because she had to do so much laundry, and find places for all of us to sleep that night.

So if you're home now, can I come play with you? Or at least talk through the window again? We can make up our own pee tricks on our brothers!! At least you get to be home for Christmas. Do you like your new house? You still live close right?

I still remember that both of us watched the same fireworks on the fourth of july. You were lucky though because you got to sit on the roof. That seems like a way long time ago.

At school we always play sparkle, and it is so fun, and we did this pin art. We had to do ten of them. Ten different ones. You might like to do it at home.

Mrs. Adams has tons of candy in her classroom. AND I WANT IT BAD!!

From Kyle, to my Best Buddy Trent

Bro & Sis Dotson,

I will pray hard I never have to go back! It is a great hospital and I am glad we have it here but yikes I am done. I am so excited about your baby!! I bet your kids are thrilled to have a new baby in the house. Is your basement finished yet? Mom always says she gets the final say on baby names cause she carried it! We roll our eyes at her! When you have him will you please let me know so I can come over and see him? I am so excited for both of you. Talk to you later. Merry Christmas

Love Trent

Morrill Family,

It is awesome to be going home. I have a permagrin on my face and I can't get rid of it. How is the 2 dog thing going? I can't remember when your mom comes home from Arizona, so I hope it's going well. Merry Christmas

Tyler,

Thanks for writing I love and miss you to. I love star wars, playstation, swords and my air soft gun. You should get an air soft gun and get your dad it's so fun!! Kaylene told my mom you are having health problems. Something about being allergic to something in flour? Is everything ok? Have they figured it out yet? It stinks to not know what is wrong but they will find out and you will be as good as new. Not much can get you down you are awesome and strong!! Well thanks for writing Merry Christmas

Love Trent

Duval Family said...

Lyndsie,

Thanks! How is Zach. Nate loved playing with him on Thanksgiving he keeps asking Mom and Grandma to call you so he can play with Zach. He really doesn't care about age difference he just love to play with anyone!! So he will be excited the next time he sees him. Are you going to Idaho for Christmas. Have a Merry Christmas!

Love Trent

Duval Family said...

Olson gang,

How are you all? It sounds like you have been busy. Is everything ok? Mom will call you. Hope all is well. How is Amber and the baby? Tell her hi. I am so excited to be home it is truly a wonderful blessing, and I am so thankful that so far things have been going well!! Tell your family hi and we miss them.

Love Trent

Kyle,

Yes, the Jazz players were so nice and very very big. The Jazz dancers were very ver very cute!!! But not as cute as my girlfriend nurses. I have 5 of them can you believe it!!! They are all very cute. That is so nasty about Casey peeing and pooping all over the beds. My mom would be very mad also. She hates cleaning up pee and poo. So where did you all sleep that night? Has Casey gotten any better? Hope for your mom's sanity he has! I would love to have you come play but I can't have anyone come for a long time. My immune system is still pretty shot so I need to be very very careful. I really don't want to go back to the hospital for a fever or anything so we are being very cautios!!!! You can come talk to me through the window again that was so fun. I will be very careful not to hit my head again!! Why does Mrs. Adams have a ton of candy? Well talk to you later. Merry Christmas

Love Trent
