Road Trip!

By BK -
Short update. We're making our way down the road. After a late start on the road yesterday we made it to our hotel in Vicksburg about 9:30 central time. We're just about all packed up again and should be in Dallas by dinner time. A couple people have asked where to send cards. Well try to figure out tonight if the hospital or hotel is better.

Update: 3/24 - I forgot to check on this, and at this point it may be best to save anything being mailed and send them to our house.  2326 Milstead Circle NE - Marietta, GA 30066  We should hopefully be home Friday March 31st.

Otherwise Isaiah will be at Medical City Hospital in Dallas until at least Tuesday. 7777 Forest Lane Dallas, TX 75230

After that it started going a bit downhill.  By this point he was already getting tired of being traipsed around and wanted to go back to the hotel, but we had to do blood draws/labs for the surgery.  He's a notoriously hard stick and it di

This blog will be our way of keeping a record of our little Isaiah's growth, surgeries, and general updates over the next few months to years. We hope this will help you all feel connected, from everyone here in Atlanta to our family and friends spread across the country in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio and elsewhere. As many of you may already know, Rachel gave birth to Isaiah Jonathan Kolis at 10:07 pm on July 17, 2008. He weighed in at a whopping 8lbs 14.8 oz and 21 inches long and that was at only 36 weeks! Rachel was brought into the hospital last Monday for high blood pressure and two days later they began inducing labor due to pre-eclampsia. Nothing happened Wednesday, but we tried again on Thursday for a natural birth since her BP was normalizing and Izzy was doing fine. Why have major surgery when you can hopefully avoid it, right? Rachel began pushing at around 7.15pm but was having problems. After about an hr or so of pushing the doctor got the vacuum and
