We have meet so many amazing people here at Primary's. Many of the nurses are so awesome and we have bonded with a lot of them who have watched over and taken care of Burke. We have made great friends, and one of those amazing people is a nurse practitioner named Kristin Print. It seems she does everything here, including the Life Flight team! Yeah sweet huh! Tonight she stopped by to check on Burke and we were asking about her sweet red life flight jump suit. She looked hard core. Ty was being himself and was asking her as many questions as he could about helicopters and difficult flying conditions and so on. He then asked about where the helicopters land here at Primary's. She then proceeded to ask us if we wanted to go up and see the pad where they land. Of course we could not turn down that kind of an offer. Considering helicopters are like the coolest thing to Tyler. There was not a helicopter up there at the time, but it was so awesome to go up there and check it out. She was so nice to just let us look around and check it out. Right when we got up on the roof we could see AirMed which is a helicopter that is a rival to Life Flight, right above us. It was just leaving the University hospital which is next door to Primary's. Then we saw another helicopter coming straight for the pad. We were so excited! She was a little alarmed because she usually gets paged when there is an incoming patient and she hadn't been paged nor was their a team on the roof ready to receive the incoming patient but all the roof landing pad lights were on. She was a little confused but she then figured that it must be flying overhead to land at the University Hospital. We kept watching as the helicopter approached and to our disappointment Krisin was right, it flew right over us and went to the University Hospital instead. We were bummed that it wasn't landing here. It would have been so cool to see it land. None the less, for a completely random tour of the hospital roof we timed things pretty well.

Hi Rachel, you won't know me, but Tyler will - Kim (Yorgason) Flora, I grew up playing at the Johnson's, usually with Jenny :) I just wanted you to know that we are praying for your little guy and your family. My son Spencer was in PCMC a few months ago and we had a truly incredible experience there and hope that yours is incredible too. Miracles happen in that place on a daily basis, probably even hourly, and we pray that miracles will continue to happen for Burke. I hope you don't mind that I've been following your blog - it is truly an inspiration to me!
