SICK OF BEING SICK....

Isaac & Evan have had some bad luck with being sick this year. Last month we found out that Isaac has/had mono (at age 3) which led to a whole string of other problems such as tonsillitis, ear infections, the cold, dehydration, high fever & having a hard time breathing properly....all of this at the same time. He eventually had to stay at Children's Hospitial in San Diego to help relieve him of the congestion in his nose & reduce the swelling in his throat so he could breath properly. After some medication & rest, he seems to be getting better---although he does have a pretty ugly cough developing...

This week we just took Evan into Children's Hospital for nearly the same thing. He already had tonsilitis when Isaac got it, but now he has mono for sure along with bonchiolitis & a cold & isn't drinking or eating! He is really such a tender kid & this is really hard on him I think.

Anyway- so this is where we are at. We'll keep you all posted. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Oh, JoAnna, I'm so sorry. That doesn't sound like fun AT ALL. I hope everything's okay.

Has Evan gotten any better since being home from the hospital? And I hope Isaac's cough doesn't get worse! Let me know if you ever need a break!

I am so, so sorry that you have to deal with sickness. I can not even imagine going to the hospital for something like that. My prayers will be with you and your family. If there is anything that I can do, let me know.
