Bi And Large

I 'supposedly' have one more hell week at work, then my schedule will start to resemble normal a bit more, and I will be around more often. I am holding my breath, because this is no fun!

Pete has been super sick. They diagnosed him with bronchitis, but if it is just that it is the worst case of bronchitis I have ever seen. When he went in to the doctor they also thought he had swine flu, which I find really amusing. They did the whole mask deal and made him do chest xrays and blood counts and nasal swabs. Good times.

My mom went back into the hospital last Thursday. :( She has had another bad infection, and this time they were seriously talking about amputating, it was so bad. They took the rod out of her leg, which was what was allowing her to walk, and that has devastated her. She made it through surgery AND kept her foot (again!) and will be in the hospial until Wednesday, then home and back in the wheelchair and on IV antibiotics for 3 more months. Can you believe it? No more walking again, no more showers, no driving, nothing. They were supposed to come out next weekend and obviously that is off. I think we'll try to get out there in a few weeks when the girls are out of school.

Wednesday (US time) is Sam's birthday. I miss her so terribly, it is hard to function sometimes. Say a prayer or spare a thought for my Sams this week. Thanks.
