4/4/1984: I started hemorrhaging today. The blood was just gushing out. In a panic I called Stephen & the doctor. Stephen rushed home & took me to the doctor. They couldn’t find any reason for it so they sent me home with some medication and orders not to do anything. I called Mom & she’s going to come tomorrow to help out.
4/5/1984: I called the doctor to report how I was doing and asked him how long I was supposed to refrain from doing anything. I can’t do anything until my next appt which is the 13th! Mom can’t stay that long so she is going to take the boy back to Santa Maria again.
4/7/1984: Mom left with the boys today. I’m feeling so much better. I hated to have them go. Still, Wednesday scared me enough that I don’t want to risk it happening again. Nancy Hatcher has arranged for people to come and stay with me next week while Stephen is at work.
4/13/1984: I went to the doctor today and he said everything is fine. We can go to Santa Maria to visit and pick up the boys.
Naomi also went to the doctor. Boy, once she started to gain, she’s done it in a big way. She is up to 9 lbs.
4/14/1984: Mom is really sick. She didn’t come out of her room all day. Since it is so crowded and Mom is so sick we decided to come home today.
4/19/1984: We got a big package from Mom & Dad today. They had huge Easter baskets for the boys and suits for the boys & a dress for Naomi for Easter. Unfortunately the suits are too tight for the boys. Mom got slim.
When Peter saw the basket he said “Oh my goodness! Gracious me!”
4/26/1984: Stephen got a call from Georgia today. They want him to come out for an interview. If he gets the job they would want him to start July 1. That’s not a whole lot of notice.
