Life ...

It's been chaotic here - A cold has been spreading through our family. Michael started feeling sick last Friday and he was still coughing a lot on Monday so got him an appointment yesterday. Doctor decided it was best to do a chest x-ray since back in November he was hospitalized for a unknown caused fever. His x-ray came back showing he got early stage of pneumonia. He is at home on antibiotics and we our family doctor again tomorrow for a follow up. I am very happy that Michael over is very content - he is very active and playful and doesn't have fever. He takes his medicine like a champ. Mikey will eat anything!

I honestly wanted to bonk my husband on head yesterday after him knowing I spent several hours at doctor office/diagnostic imaging place. He comes home and acted like I did nothing and he had the right to fuss about stupid stuff ... like me not seeing a pasta sauce in cabinet. I was thinking once again - I get noticed for the stuff I don't do and not get any acknowledgement for stuff I have done. Since I did clean half the house up as well as doctor appointment.....

Just needed to vent a tad ... but I cheered up quickly with some of the pair of characters for the mystery fic challenge at atlaworld. It's getting me back in rabid shipping everyone with everyone again.... I'm excited to see the stories even if the interaction required isnt romantic between characters people got stuck with.

Hi there! Very sorry to hear your son(?) is so sick -- I hope he's better soon. Also sorry to hear about the lack of understanding from husband. That sounds so frustrating. It's amazing how invisible that kind of caring work is to so many people. But it is serious work! Hopefully he'll come around, and good luck with your fic!

Thanks. Michael is doing better now I was happy he didn't get worse.

Oh, I hope your baby is doing better soon - pneumonia is a big deal! And yeah, I totally get what you're saying: people don't realise just how much legwork comes from medical apppointments, imaging scans, etc, etc. It's really hard work.

I'm really sorry to hear about Michael and I hope he gets better soon. That must have been an exhausting day.

[ladyjamielynne]

Was exhausting but worth finding out what going on. Michael is doing good now

I hope the antibiotics kick in fast and Michel gets well soon.The fact that he has an appetite is a very good sign!

Hope Michael is better very soon!!

It's frustrating when people don't realise how much effort your day has been, that it's invisible. *hugs you hard*

Mikey is doing well now. Hubby knows the effort it takes from when he went in to doctor but guess he just choose to ignore it.
