I'm back!

Alright alright alright I'm back. Going to take f-o-r-e-v-e-r to catch you all up with our last 2 months or so. 

It's been crazy!!! Lots of sickness, lots of blessings and lots of stress. However it's getting some what back to normal. Thank you Jesus!!!

I'm still recovering from Pmonia which let me tell you, stinks! Trent was sick for about 2 1\2 weeks with pmonia and about the day he was back to normal I came down with the flu. Horrible!!!! Major sweats, aches that made me just about cry, fever at the highest of 104. No energy what so ever!!! I was in and out of the doctors office and med-express. My cough was horrible, to the point where I was throwing up I was coughing so hard. Just absolutely no fun. I was then finally given an xray and was diagnosed with some pretty severe pmonia. During my ordeals I discovered I don't like Codeine, sorta made me crazy! Also discovered what it feels like to have an allergic reaction, also no fun!! The night I was admitted to the hospital they hooked me up to I.V and gave me two different medicines, one of those meds did not agree with me. Started getting itchy, my head felt ridiculous and then my throat started closing. Like I needed one more thing. I have never been allergic to anything...till now! And I can't wait to start getting my medical bills. An EKG, a catscan and 4 xrays and one more in about 2 weeks. Blood work everyday, oxygen, and 4 days in the hospital...yay! The worst part about the hospital was the sitting, I was on oxygen so I couldn't go far from my bed and even if I could I was quarantined due to the flu. It was no vacation. And man did I miss my baby...only ever been away from him for one night so that was pretty horrible. 

I do need to thank two very special people in my life. My parents. I could not have imagined dealing with those few weeks without my mom and dads help. I cannot thank them enough for coming up and taking care of our house and most importantly Trent and Rylee. See the day I was diagnosed with the flu and my parents started their travels to our house, we got a call that Children and Youth were probably going to be getting custody of a 4 month old little girl and they wanted to know if we wanted her. WOW! Perfect timing, right? Ugh! I couldn't say no though! We had nothing for a little girl! And I had no energy to get things ready for her. But who cares we're getting a little girl to care for!!!! Anyways Monday Rylee came and what a sweet heart she is and then Tuesday night I got admitted to the hospital. So I defly needed my mom and dad and so did Steve!!! 

So I was sent home from the hospital on a Saturday. Lots of meds sent home including an inhaler and I was suppose to be taking oxygen but my insurance refused to pay for it! Thanks! So I've had about 4 coughing attacks that took me a bit to get a hold of my breathing but I've been good for days!!! The Monday after I had an appointment for WIC with Rylee. That did not go good. It was so hot in that place I got sick. That short visit took everything out of me I then spent the rest of the day napping! I was convinced I was going to recover from this sickness and quick. I cannot sit around any longer! So Wednesday my mom went home! And since then everyday Ive gotten better and better!!!  

I must say God is good cause through everything that occurred in the last few months I've felt strong. God is holding us high and bringing such kind people into our lives to help us out. And like I said what a blessing my parents are in our lives. I've been frustrated with insurance companies and what they refuse to cover and I can't imagine the medical bills that will be coming for Trent and I and we've yet to get any! So it'll start pouring all at once I'm sure. But I know God will take care of us and each bill will be paid dollar by dollar. 

So I'm recovering and I just thank God for that! I can't imagine being sick on a daily basis and I feel horrible for those that are. I still have a nasty cough but hey I'll deal with that! Life moves on and with two kiddos in the house I gotta keep moving on!

  1. Thinking and praying everyday for all of you. You have a great family and magnificent support from them all. Wish I could have done something for you. But so far away, it just wasn't happening. But I would have been there in a heartbeat, if need be. Love the great pics of Trent & Rylee. Keep sending them to me. I printed the one you sent yesterday. Sorry I missed your text yesterday, but phone was in my purse from Saturday and only found it this morning.
    Love Ya Bunches. Take Care.
