Well baseball season is in full swing now, however, Q18 is missing a great deal of it!!! I feel like Lynus from the "Peanuts" gang carrying my ever so faithful blanket around with me and the never ending black cloud following me where ever I go and turning to dust anything I touch!!!
This was suppose to be Q18's year, more importantly, break out year!!! He started out wonderful then a week ago Friday he started complaining his body hurt. I just chalked it up to him being over utlilized with the team. We had been fighting BAD and I had no intentions of attending the game that night, to make a point, not to mention I really was not up to it with all I have been going through physically. However, he begged, he wasn't feeling good, he begged and I gave in!!
From the moment I walked up and saw him pitch I knew something was really wrong ~ it was more than he wasn't on his A game something was really really off!!! He still won the game but you could tell Q18 wasn't up to par...
Later that night, Q18 did something he never does unless he is really sick, he crawled up on the couch with me to cuddle and watch TV. He gave up going out with friends and girlfriend to cuddle with mom, yeah baby something is wrong!!!
Well long story short, he had not been out of bed since a week ago Friday!!! He went to the doctor ~ strep throat ~ med's followed by rash ~ back to the doctor we go ~ new med's and rash is a strep throat rash ~ NOT which I argue with them about. Yes I know hard to believe I'd tell a doctor how to their job but well I did!!!
Rash getting worse so is Q18 ~ emergency room visit ~ rash allergic reaction to Zpack med's which apparently stay in his system for 21 days ~ first diagnosis spinal meningitis (however you spell it) luckily false ~ he has strep throat and mono with a Zpack med allergic reaction.
He is off the mound for at least the next 2 weeks and out of school now going on his second week.
Now Prissy Princess is starting with same actions as Q18 taking preventive actions going to doctor AGAIN 4 times in a week to make sure she is okay!!
Poor speedbump he is dragging trying to pick up the slack since I still haven't been able to get back to par fighting this and that since surgery...........can I just say THIS IS ROUGH!!!
Hope everyone else is doing better than our family!!

God, what a mess! I hope y'all get better quick!
Holy Cow, hon! I hope both your babies are getting better, and you, too. It's hard when the whole family is dragging around. I didn't realize that some of those drugs are so slow to leave the body. This REALLY makes me hope that I don't find that I'm allergic to anything.
Is Q18 up to having a tutor stop by to keep him up on his classwork? He's a senior, isn't he? You don't want him missing work that he doesn't have time to make up.
I hope you're all feeling better soon, hon. HUgsssssss to you all!
omg, I hope everyone is ok, give my kids a hug from me...must have been fate that I didn't have time to stop by :-(
