As all of you know, little Sammy joined our family in November of 2007.

It wasn't long afterwards that Esther discovered a bulge near his abdomen. About 3 weeks later, Sam went under the knife for a hernia operation. The surgeoen repaired not one, but two inguinal hernias. Sam recovered quite well from the surgery.
Just a week or two later he contracted the sniffles from Olivia (can't stop smothering him) and things escalated. Last Friday he went to the clinic and was diagnosed with pneumonia, but was still fighting it well. The doctor sent us home, to return on Saturday. Saturday morning, Sam's blood-oxygen saturation had dropped into the low 80's and the doctor ordered us to head to the hospital. After a few minutes in the ER, Sam had his own room on the 7th floor. Molly was his first nurse, and got us off to a great start. Our initial idea was to be out of there by Sunday or Monday and back to our normal routine...
