Off to bed
I am still so stuffed up and my sinuses are clogged like they haven’t been in a long time! I broke down and bought the “behind the counter” night time sniffling sneezing coughing aching stuffy head fever so you can rest generic with pseudophedrine in it—had to pull out the driver’s license so I could get it out the door! Since I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow, I at least won’t have to suffer too much longer. I’ll just add sinus infection to my list of complaints.
Zoe’s rash is a bit better but still looks a little sore. If she’s not better by tomorrow, I guess I’ll see if I can get her in to see the doctor as well. She’s got a stuffy nose on top of that and some sort of goop in her eyes. Since they aren’t red/bloodshot, I don’t think it’s pink eye, but who knows!
AJ’s also got “the cough” and has been staying on top of making sure he gets honey to keep it under control. Amazingly, it’s done really well at keeping him from staying up at night with a nasty cough. John had something last week, but he seems to be the only one who’s really healthy at this point.
I have two friends who had family members have seizures this week. D’s husband had one Monday evening and she spent the week at doctor’s appointments. It sounds like he’s got epilepsy. B’s little baby boy (not even a year yet!) had a febrile seizure on Saturday night, needed mouth to mouth and has been admitted to the hospital. I hope that both of them find out that things are controllable but I can’t imagine the stress and worry they’re both under. I hope J and JSL are all right. Hugs and prayers going out to both families this week.
