The Story Continues without much choice I guess.....

Entry 1,500 (that's what it feels like anyways) from the week of April 11th 2010 (OK I know past entries say the 10th but I was actually admitted Sunday, April 11th 2010)

Somehow we made it through that day and night, but the next morning, Saturday, April 10th we were all packing up our stuff on our way to the cities. I was driving, probably not the best idea considering that my legs and feet were partially numb and tingling. I was however feeling so awful that I just wanted to get by my family and get those kids to their parents. On the way, so actually just starting out from my brothers to the Urgent Care I was going to a 10 mile stretch, I started sweating profusely. I had the air on full blast pointed at my forehead and I took 2 Aleve. I called and told my mom that I was feeling so awful that I was going to go to Urgent care now for the third time.

So, with 2 children in tow, I submitted myself to urgent care. At this time mostly because of the feverish symptoms and bladder issues of either not being able to go or not being able to hold it. I went in, and they did an urinalysis and gave me a prescription for prednisone. We got out to the car and I had to change my nephew who at this point was getting tired and hungry. I put his blanket down in the grass and laid him down to change him, while Maylene our dog and my niece ran around. Can you imagine how frazzled my brain was right then. I finished changing my nephew and attempted to get up from my squatting position and fell straight back with baby in arms, knowing that not harming him was my first concern. I chuckled and had to use the front of the car to pull myself up. I can’t imagine what a site we were because I looked over and my 3 year old niece had her pants down going to the bathroom outside. OKAY EVERYBODY IN THE CAR!!! We got something to eat and continued on our way, I can’t tell you how happy I was just to get there. I was in a lot of pain, and I knew that I wouldn’t have been able to take care of those kids or dogs another day.

Imagine the pain of your body eating away at itself. Cannibalism 101 ?

Thank you Jesus for how far you've brought me! Wow! I had A LOT of sick, sucky, and depressing days full of pain! Lord thank you for your grace and mercy upon me! Amen!
