Woah is me...

I just need to take a moment to have a pity party. Have you ever heard of pleurisy? Well I hadn't, but it turns out that it's awful! I've had bronchitis for close to 2 months now (no antibiotics seem to work) and lately the right side of my chest has become so painful that I can't even lift my arm. I don't even want to go into the stabbing pains when I cough. (And, of course, I can't stop coughing.) Pleurisy. It's an inflammation of the lining of the lung. Luckily Ammon's actually had it before and has nothing but empathy for me. He's worked from home the past two days so that he can do all of the lifting and chasing of Campbell (and throwing him into the Swim Nazi's arms). Woah is me. Just had to share. :-)

Empathy from us here in Logan as well!! Ben can barely swallow right now and hasn't slept well in a week. I guess we are headed into week two :(

I hate being sick and can't imagine being that sick as a mom when there are so many things on the "to-do" list. We hope you getting feeling better soon!!
