Never been more happy with Tonsillitis and a Sinus Infection!


Starting on Saturday Pierce had a horrible deep cough which shortly turned into a runny nose and temperature. Under normal circumstances I would have given him some extra love and maybe some Motrin but things aren't that normal are they... with all of this Swine Flu hype going on (no none cases in Singapore) I was a little freaked out. We did not go to church on Sunday bc of his condition so we had a lazy morning and Pierce seemed only to get worse. He had a low temperature, runny nose, sneezing, coughing, achy, etc... Monday morning this is what he looked like... he just wanted to sit there...so I got a little nervous and Blake told me to call the dr. to just make myself feel better... that is all I needed and off we went.
When we arrived at the dr.'s office they immediately took my temperature and Pierce's. Pierce did not have a temp. at the time bc the Motrin had set in but since he was coughing and had a runny nose they wanted him to wear the mask (he would not so they "sort of" isolated us)... All the personnel were wearing these masks and everyone had their temp. taken... even a guy who came in to get his stitches looked at...

After seeing the dr... I have never been more happy to hear that Pierce has Tonsillitis and a Sinus Infection... Thank you God. We are good but on medicine and trying to get lots of rest to get better.

I have a little itch in my nose and my throat is sore so I am headed to take some Zicam now... hope to have the family healthy again soon... for now we are enjoying each other and staying inside.

Pierce reminds me so much of Kellen. You know they are really feeling bad when all they want to do is sit or lay there. Hope he feels better soon.
