Go away....

Germs.

Our home has been filled with ailments for a while.  Bad heels.  Sprained ankle.  The flu.  Viral infection.  And overall sniffling and sneezing.

I want our house to be well.  I want to sleep through the night.  I want my physician's nurse not to know me by name.  I want my kids to go back to school.

I *think* we're on the mend.

JH is still struggling with his heels.  I'm hoping that will just clear itself, with heel inserts and no more soccer.  I hope, pray and pray.

Sofia needs to build strength in her ankle.  I think that will take time.  She hasn't played soccer for over 2 weeks.  She's had the stomach flu for nearly 4 days.  The doctor today said it's the flu that's going around. If she does not show signs of improvement by Wednesday, bring her in.  What's hard is she is so weak.  She hasn't eaten much.  She's lost 5 pounds, which doesn't seem a lot for me, but it is about 6% of her body weight.  You can see it in her.  In her face, in her body.

Lilia, oh my Lilia.  A 4.5 hour visit to ER last night.  That was not a fun Sunday.  But we're on the mend.  She's breathing better, not as deep.  She hates prednisone, but loves the breathing treatments.  But she's bouncing a bit now, so that's a good sign.

Alex (knock on wood) has a clean bill of health.

Do you hear me germs, go away....next week is Thanksgiving!  Get better vibes~~~~~~~
