September 9th day +125



My potty throne has arrived. I am so excited. We just have to figure out a way to keep the buckets under it to catch my pee & poop. The chair will allow me to put my legs and feet up so hopefully they will not be so swollen. I have only pooped a few times in the last 2 days and it has been blood. The doc's think that my intestines are not working and everything is backing up or I am throwing it up. Nasty I know but it's my life! My fever broke and I am just trying to recover now. I am so excited for my potty chair.
Love Trent

Trent,
We are sorry you are feeling so miserable...you are such a trooper! That chair is amazing-
who came up with that??? We all could use one of those! :) We hope it helps-it's gotta be better than being stuck on the toilet. We hope you are feeling the prayers of everyone-that somehow you are feeling some sort of peace in your trial. You are the center of so many prayers!!! Give your mom a hug for us.
Love ya!

Oh, Trent- we are so excited for you! Your potty throne looks awesome! I love all the streamers on it, it looks like you had a celebration when it arrived.

Our little girl is turning 1 this weekend. I can't believe how fast she is growing up. She loves to dance to music and is trying to walk now.

We love you and hope your potty throne helps your feet not feel so swollen.

Love, Luke and Emily

That's great news! A little external relief I'm sure will be great. Sorry your intestines are not cooperating. You tell them to shape up, or else....! Take care, Trent.

Who knew that I would ever be jealous of a potty chair... but there you go! You are set!! I really hope it helps your legs.
We all hope you start to feel better really soon and can get over this yucky stuff for good.
Keep being brave and keep a smile on your face. We wish you the best and will continue to pray for you and your family!
