I did not pick five people. Actually, I didn't finish the entry. However, I am rather sick and have been for a few days. My energy and mental clarity sort of comes and goes. Presently, it is 2:42 am, and I am awake again because I ache horribly and am still working on getting my coughing under control.
The rest of the post will be worked in as my health allows and improves.
And thank you in advance for your prayers because I know some of you wonderful folks will be praying for me. You always do, and I so much appreciate it. :-)
Hope you are feeling better soon, and can get some rest, and thank you for, oh, everything....get well:)
ReplyDeletehwy lovely! I hope you are feeling better soon...I wish you were here with your wonderful children oh the adventures we would have...there is so much to explore.

Precious sisters,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your prayers. I feel Robert and I have finally turned the corner on this. He was able to sleep all night last night propped up in our recliner, and while I am tired from over two weeks of our family battling this stuff, I am feeling much better and sleeping helps. Please pray for my husband, Rob, who started feeling bad toward the end of last week. He slept with the windows opn last night so the 33 degree air could keep his airways open and he could breathe.
Just to pass along what we learned:
If you should get this respiratory virus, Vick's Vapor Rub is wonderful. Apple Cider is soothing on the cough and nasal passages. Mucinex DM and ibuprofen help with the coughing and aches that come from the coughing. We found sleeping on the couch kept us propped up enough to help us rest and abate the coughing. The second wave feels like a severe allergy attack or asthma. Hot showers and cold air help keep the passages open.
