It's been forever since I've been out here! Just wanted to touch base with everyone. Marcus goes for his checkup at Children's clinic in Milwaukee on October 27th for his thyroid issue. I'm sure he will be  put on some sort of meds that day. The initial blood test said he had "mildly low thyroid" whatever that's supposed to mean! I guess I will be finding out all the information when we go. Mitchell was picked up early yesterday from school, sick. Don't know if it's that H1N1 bug or just a bad cold. But he has the symptoms of the swine flu so I'm just guessing. He actually feels worse than he did yesterday but he's sleeping allot which is a good thing. Let's the body heal. He hates taking the Tylenol flu stuff that I got for him to take. He says it tastes nasty (it does) so I tried mixing it with gatorade and juice and whatever else works. It takes forever to get the dose in! But we've got to get the fever down. Last temp check it was 101.2. I hate when anyone has a fever. My husband is doing pretty good since his back surgery on Sept 8th. He had a rough time in the hospital and some rough days at home. He goes to physical therapy 2x a week starting next week. He's wiped afterwards. He'll have a long recuperation time. They say a good 12 to 18 months altogether. I guess this is another time when you find out how strong your marriage is. Let's just say we haven't been quite as pleasant as we should be all the time. Stress I guess will do that. So here's my update for ya! Hugs to you All!
