So, I’m happy to report that I am feeling the best I’ve felt in two months!! It’s been fantastic to feel normal again. I do still get tired in the afternoon but I’ve been tired in the afternoon for like 4 years so that’s nothing new. The only last effect of the pneumonia is that I get these headache type things and get really dizzy and lightheaded at least once a day. So, other than that I’m feeling great. Logan is feeling great too and is keeping me busy with his fits and time outs. But Lindsay and Jeffy have seen better days.
Lindsay came in our room this morning crying and complaining that her ear hurt. Jeffy just thought she had slept on it wrong and left it alone and had her come and lay with him. A few minutes later she started crying again saying it still hurt. Okay, so maybe she’s serious. Once we went downstairs to have some breakfast she just wanted to lay down because she’s was so tired. She said it hurt when she coughed and that her neck and her head hurt. Okay, time to call the doctor. I was mostly worried that she had developed pneumonia herself and I was not going to let it fester any longer if that was the case. The doctor looked in her ears and said she had a double ear infection. WHAT? I did not expect that. He listened to her chest and didn’t hear any pneumonia in there but he said that if she does have it the antibiotics will help get rid of that as well as the ear infection. Neither of my kids have ever had ear infections before and so this is all new to me. I was nervous that she would be in a lot of pain and that’s horrible to watch, but once we got back home and gave her a dose of the antibiotics and some Ibu she seemed to be just fine. So, hopefully tomorrow will be better.
Jeffy has come down with another sinus infection. His second one in 6 weeks! Is that even possible? So, instead of taking the time and paying the money to see a doctor, he just called his friend who is a PA and asked if he could call him in a prescription so he went and picked it up tonight so hopefully he’ll get to feeling better quickly. So three out of four of us have been on antibiotics in the last 2 weeks. Hopefully, Logan will stay strong and healthy and miss out on all of this fun.

3Maybe all you needed was a trip to New York, getting rained on, and rushing from Broadway to Yankee Stadium. You should have tried that sooner!
