The Dr called.
Looks like I have Mono.
Shouldn't I have had this about 20 years ago?
Seriously.
First I get an infection that normally hits senior citizens in rest homes, now I have a virus that usually affects teenagers. I think my body hates me.
::::Waving a white towel:::::
I give up!
What am I supposed to learn from this?
Probably not to go on a pioneer trek if you aren't feeling too great to begin with.
I'm the mom. Doesn't my body know I don't have time to be sick?!?
How irritating- I hate being sick.

Oh, Emily I am so sorry. What are your symptoms when you have mono? All that I know about it is that it lasts forever.
Please let me know how I can help, also I am waiting to see your trek pictures.
My sister had it twice growing up. My M-I-L just recovered from the same thing. She didn't have ANY of the typical symptoms -- was sick with one thing after another for about 6 months though. SOOOO sorry. If you need help with kids send em my way. Mine BEG every day to play with friends. Seriously -- you will need lots more sleep than usual to get better.

Em, I'm so sorry, If you need help just call!!! Love and miss you all.
I am so sorry. I hope you get better fast.
Oh my goodness, Emily! Get lots of rest and hope to hear you're feeling better soon.
Thanks for the well wishes. My symptoms have been a killer sore throat (which steriods helped get rid of), low-grade fever, achiness, very tired, nausea and some abdominal pain which I'm told is from the spleen being enlarged when you have mono- no contact sports allowed. I have been dealing with alot of kidney pain since the infection mess in Dec. and the dr wondered out-loud a few weeks back if I might have mono then. I am hoping I did and that I will be over this pretty quick.
I will get trek pictures up soon. I've had 2 of my nieces staying with us this week so I've had my hands a little extra full. ~em
Oh Em...I agree with you: Mom's shouldn't be allowed to get sick. The only thing worse than being sick is being sick and still having to take care of kids. You're a trooper. Marci had mono a couple weeks ago (might still have it). I'm beginning to think it's a sign that we all need to slow down.
