Sick Husband

Jeremy has been sick for the past week.  Last Friday, he woke up with a terrible fever.  We both stayed home from work, so I could be the nurse and take care of him.  The fever would not go away and on Saturday we went to the Doctors because he woke up with swollen gums and a weird blister on his tongue.  So while Jeremy was in with the Doc I waited..........  I hate waiting rooms.  I kept having to move around because everyone was coughing and I really don't want to get sick.  I also went home and ate fruit.  I hope I can always be healthy because I hate hospitals.  Have I ever mentioned that before?

Anyway, it is Wednesday night and Jeremy finally ate something. ( He has not eaten anything since Friday night when he tried to eat a hamburger and could only stomach 1/2 because his mouth and throat hurt so bad.  I on the other hand ate a hamburger, potatoes, a big glass of chocolate milk and some cookies.)  We went to KFC tonight and he ate a small side of mashed potatoes and painfully ate some chicken.  I on the other hand, ate mashed potatoes and chicken, a carton of strawberries that I dipped in sugar, A big glass of Milk with Carnation instant breakfast powder mixed in, and 2 candy canes.  

He also talks with a lisp, it is pretty funny...tonight was not so bad so I think the antibiotics are finally kicking in.

We also have not shared the same bed for the last week...I miss him but I really don't want to get sick and he does not want me sick either.  I love my husband.  

I am now in my 30th week....10 more to go hopefully!  Could be 12 with the Downs  Genes in me!
