Sick Update

Grace seems to be better. She had not had a fever all day yesterday, then yesterday evening she started running one again and looking like she did on Saturday. We kept her home from school because of the fever she had last night, but she hasn't had any fever sin

I, on the other hand, have definitely gotten sick. I don't know what this is, but its not good. This is the sickest I think I've been in a long time, and last night Ray even said he's never seen me this bad. I've been running a low fever, but I feel the fever, you know, when you feel feverish-feeling very hot inside my body, while the outside is very cold. I have chills and shivers, then I have sweats. My head aches mostly all the time, my body aches, I have absolutely NO energy, and I am very tired, yet I can't sleep very well. I have a horrible cough. Whatever it is, I wish it would go away.

On top of that, now my little Nate started running a fever. Poor thing. I feel bad for the kids, because if they feel anywhere close to what I feel, I know it must be hard for their little bodies . Their temperatures have been higher than mine, but I know my body fights things pretty hard, and I rarely ever get fevers. Mine has been around 2ish degrees higher than normal, while the kids have been around 3ish higher than normal. Anyway, I hope this is the end of it for Grace, and I hope that Nate feels better soon, too. As for me, I hope I feel better soon as well. Its hard to just lay around all the time and not do anything at all. We have a great week of weather coming and I'd love to take the kids to the park- if we're better of course.

And Ray has been the best husband anyone could have. He's been such a big help to me, I don't know what I would have done without him. Unfortunately, he will have to go to work tomorrow, so I am REALLY hoping I'm better then.

Think "chicken soup" from Panera Bread:) I'll drop some off tomorrow before lunch time. (Unless Ray already got some?) Hope you guys are starting to mend.
love and prayers,
mom and dad

I'd bring you some chicken soup too, Gabbs! Poor you...it's no fun being sick AND taking care of the kids.
