From Barbara

Bree had surgery; she was pregnant, about 6-8 weeks, but the fetus had attached to the ovary, there was actually a heartbeat. Dr. said he hadn't seen anything like it but once in 17 years. The egg was fertilized before it entered the fallopian tube, and attached to the closest thing handy, to the ovary. The ovary and the fallopian tube were removed. She had bled a lot internally, about 1/3rd of her blood. She was sent home right after, the same day, which was way too soon. She started having a lot of pain on Saturday and her blood pressure dropped, we had to take her
back to the hospital. They kept her Sat night and then because she had lost so much blood and it wasn't replacing itself, she was given a transfusion yesterday. They sent her home last night. She seems to be doing OK this morning. I will have David call you guys as soon as he gets back; he took Erin to her first day of first grade this morning. 

Will talk to you later. 
Barbara.
