***On another note: Once Vivian does come home, we are going to have to be as strict if not moreso as the hospital about visitors. We don't want anyone to take this personally - it is strictly for precautionary measures. A small thing to you or I could be potentially deadly to someone like Vivian. Handwashing will be a MUST. (Sarah and Danielle are actually very comfortable with the frequency of this...) We can have NO visitors that are sick, have recently been sick or have been around someone who has been sick. (i.e., any coughs, colds, flu, chicken pox, etc.) Also, because of her lowered and weakened immune system, Tyler and I have decided that we will be limiting the number of children to visit. If your child has been immunized within 2 weeks of visiting, or if your child attends any daycare type setting, we will have to pass on them visiting.

Also, if you are planning on visiting, we ask out of courtesy, that you please call first to make arrangements to visit, as the nurses have firm instructions not to allow any visitors in the house if we are not home. Again, we don't want anyone to take our rules personally, we just need to have them for Vivian's protection. If you need our phone number, please email us at: allofus@lemkefamily.com and we can give that to you.
