Hey all,

Well, the bug has hit me. I've got tummy troubles, and i'm coughing and just plain ol' wiped out. I've been in bed for the past few days, just feeling lousy.

Nurse is coming tomorrow, so she'll listen to my lungs. I'm hoping I don't have pneumonia, because I do NOT want to go into the hosptial. Maybe at the most, i will go see the Dr, and she can put me on an antibiotic, if needed and I can battle this at home, and pump up my O2 if needed. It's hard to breathe, cause my poor nose is all stuffed up.

Ok, off to bed..hoping i can sleep since that's all i've been doing all day anyways. Praying i will fall asleep, since i have a 10am Dr's appointment for something else, in the morning.

Nite folks,

Boo

Praying for you Boo. Hope it does not turn into pneumonia!! Stay home and take your meds and drink lots of liquids (non caffine) and hope you can get a handle on this. I don.t know about where you live, but this crazy weather in Texas has us all sick...I am beginning to feel it.
Hope you get better soon

Boo, did the nurse come today and what did she have to say ?

Praying and thinking of you... Rest and get well soon !!!!

Boo1962 05/02/2013

Awww...I really love you all!!! Nurse came today, no problem with my lungs, they are fine! Thank God!! Still have tummy troubles, but taking immodium. Finally, My Dr called Walmart, and called in 5 days of my pain pills. I'm finally having some relief from my pain. That was really depressing me. I also went to pick it up in the car, came home, paid all of the bills, and had something to eat.

So, I'm on the mend. thank you so much for your well wishes, you guys are the BEST!!!!!

xoxoxox,

Boo
