The Red Thread

Once our eyes have been opened we can't pretend that
we don't know what to do; for God who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls
knows that we know and holds us responsible to act. Proverbs
24:12

All The Kids Are Sick

I have been in Seattle for a few days and returned to a sick house.  All four kids are sick!  Melissa had to take Ansley to see a doctor tonight and they determined she has an ear infection.  They put her on antibiotics.  This is the first time in her 10 year life she has ever had antibiotics or prescription medicine of any kind.  The doctor (not her regular doctor) could not believe she has never taken any medications.

Iris is running a fever and Elliot is acting like he is starting to come down with something.

Owen was sick yesterday but seems to be better today.  He is scheduled for an esophagus stretching tomorrow morning so we are hoping he has a good night and the other three have not contaminated him!  This stretching is the last procedure before his big surgery on August 6 (re-scheduled to Aug 6 a few days ago).

Hopefully Melissa and I can fight off the sickness......  stay tuned.

  2. So sorry to hear that! We had something similar go through our house a couple weeks ago; Sarah ended up spending July 4th in the E.R. at our local Children's Hospital with Hannah because of a bad, double ear infection. Anyhow, were parying you all get better!
