at the hospital

A couple of weeks ago Gracie gave us a scare when she stopped breathing and turned blue. We rushed her to the local hospital where they sent us, by ambulance, over to the Primary Children's hospital in Salt Lake City. That day, she saw 5 doctors, an EMT and who know how many nurses. The final verdict? She's ok. The neurologist (who we were scheduled to see that day for similar episodes in the past) said that it is fairly common condition that young children go through and is something that she will go out of around age 3. He said that she will always regain her breath on her own (which she has) but that we have to stay calm to have the confidence that she will be ok.

Since then she hasn't had any more episodes, and is doing just great. Thanks to everybody for all their prayers and phone calls of support.

Thanks Aaron. Gracie really didn't seem to mind the whole ordeal.

I didn't do anything special on this one, and I don't remember much about the lighting, but it seems like they have large overhead lights and white walls so lots of soft light bouncing around. These were all shot with our little Panasonic. I don't think there was any fill flash on it, either. One thing we like about the Panasonic is it has image stabilization which helps us shoot stationary things or people in low light.

Tough Gracie

Gracie is a good sport to let them pull her around and wire her up like that. We're so glad she's okay. How did you get that even lighting on the second photo?
