Sicker than I thought ...

Well, it all started last Thursday, you know with the "pressure around the eyes", it was bearable so didn't pay much attention. By Monday, according to Melisa, I sounded like Marge Simpson; Carin thought by adding my Mother's "whine", I sounded like her ... hmm, it was slightly painful to speak, but thought this would all pass.

Today, talking with Carin, she insisted that I see the Doctor or miss our first Christmas with Dylan ... well that threw me into action! Dr. Franz walks into the exam room, greets me and says, "you sound terrible" ... opps! I can actually talk today, you should have heard me on Monday. So, twenty minutes later, which included a shot, and not in the arm, a steroid pack, cough syrup, and an order for a chest X-ray off I went to the hospital. Next stop was the pharmacy to pick up the remaining prescriptions and home for dinner.

I can hardly wait to take the cough syrup (contains codeine) since for the last two nights I've slept sitting up in my recliner, located in the living room! Ahh, sleep will be sound and good tonight! Sweet dreams everyone, until next time .....
