So Sick!

So these past like 2 weeks we have been so sick! I started it all off with a major sinus infection, I had it for about two weeks then finally decided to go get meds to kick it out of my system. So I started to feel better then the next night Brooklyn was up all night with an ear ache. So I took her in that day and sure enough she had a double ear infection!! She was starting to feel better thankfully. I though we were in the clear of being sick little did I know what was instore! So Parker had a bad cold for a couple weeks but I didn't think it was really turning into anything. On Saturday the 17th he started to not eat and had a tempeture of about 102 ish then Sunday the same thing. So I was starting to worry now so Monday he started to look really bad and was starting to be lathargic and his temp was not coming down from 103! I called the doctor and took him in after Brandon got home from work. I was thinking he may have an ear infection too but not so lucky. The doctor looked at him and listened to him breath and said, "are you reay for this? He has pneumonia!" I was floored I felt so bad like I should have brought him in days ago. We did some breathing treatments at the doctors office but that didnt help. So we then were sent to the hospital! I got in the car and called Brandon to come meet me for moral support! He had X-rays done which did show his left lung infected. And then he had blood tests done. I was nervous about him getting his blood drawn but he was so sick I held him in my lap and he just sat there...he didn't flinch or even cry! This poor sick little boy! The blood tests did come back with his white blood cell count low which would be the pneumonia. We were very lucky and didn't have to stay over night at the hospital. After about 2 days of meds in his system and lots of rest he started to get back to our crazy busy little boy. We went into the doc for 2 more check ups unfortunately he had a double ear infection and had lost 3 pounds but I just took him for his last check up on Monday this week and his lungs were sounding great again and he only had one ear infection. So just a little bit longer on meds and his next hopfully last check up in a couple weeks. I'm so grateful this didn't turn out as bad as it could have and that he is back to his sweet healthy silly little self!!

Then to top it all off the day Parker was at the hospital my dad wasn't feeling well and went to the doc and they found a major blood clot in his groin area!! So scary! They put him on meds and daily shots to hopefully thin out his blood. They came and visited us this past weekend even with him not feeling well. He went back into the doctor the day thy got back and two smaller pieces had broken off and gone through his heart and to his lungs!! Crazy scary!! So yesterday he went and they put in a filter so no more blood clots can go through his heart or lungs. I am so thankful for my dad and all he does. I'm so lucky to have such a wonderful father and a fun grandpa for my kids! I'm thankful he is feeling better today and things can only get better from here!!

We better start getting some nice weather and so we can all be healthy again! :)
