It all started with a phone call.

This is my first blog and I know it may be rambling and confusing at times. I just need a place to write down the events of what happened to my lovely Jamie and my little Lily as she was being born.
It all started with a phone call. Now you wouldn't think this unusual except that Jamie only calls when it's important or she's worried. Otherwise, we get text messages from her. So when I got a phone call saying that the doctor told her to go to the hospital and that she may be admitted I knew something odd was going on. She said that her blood pressure was high and that she had a lot of swelling and the doctor was concerned. She was going to go have a test done and then possibly be admitted. The obvious thing for me to do was "google" high blood pressure etc. We came up with a condition called pre-eclampsia. Not a good thing.
With this information we began to try to figure out what we should do from so far away. The first decision was that I should fly up to be with her in case they had to deliver the baby or something bad happened to Jamie. Then John decided that we should just start driving up and he could be there too just in case things went bad. And so our adventure began!
