Sorry for the lack of updates recently .... I am struggling with the flu! Not swine, but I do have it bad. Very high fever & all the other typical symptoms .... just got home from an urgent care clinic w/medication. It basically has to run its "course" for several days and will improve eventually. Thankfully, I have been really healthy the entire year, so I guess it was time for something. No one at work has had it, so I probably got it from a kid. Last night I was having dry heaves so bad that I honestly thought perhaps it was a seizure ... the shaking was awful. I'll be home from work for the next couple of days.
All is okay with the foot .... the area that was bleeding stopped and there is a scab over the spot. It looks like it is healing. It is just very fragile and nothing can touch the area. I ordered a new forefoot compression stocking, so it is MUCH tighter and has helped with the swelling. I wear it a few hours and then have to take it off because it gets achy after wearing it a long time - compression pressure.
My mom is in Orlando and she is helping her parents with last minute move preparations. They are moving to an apartment in O'Fallon, MO later this week. They fly back to St. Charles on Wednesday, but it is a process. The moving truck arrives in St. Charles at the end of this week.
Better get back to bed .... pray that the flu is short lived!

Jenny, If is isnt't one thing it is another. The last thing you need to deal with is the flu. Haven't you had enough to deal with? Hope you are feeling better soon. Glad to hear your foot is doing better. Take care of yourself and get some rest. Thinking of you always. Ted,Carol,Teddy
Will do, girl! Will definately pray that the flu is short-lived, outa' here, flown the coop (or the pen...if we're talking swine...which I'm glad we're NOT), etc. The shakes / jitters you get w/ stuff like that is the pits...but the puking is definatly worse. I would rather be hit by a mack truck than puke, I think...hmmm...wait: perhaps not. Ask me another time after I've pondered on that one. Thinking of you. L Jo
Hey, Jen! It's 5:26 on Tuesday & I'm praying 4 U...praying you are recup-ing well & well on your way to a FULL recovery from the f-l-u. Glad you don't think it's swine...but I think you already said that (OINK!). Just kidding. Yeah...not too funny... Any-hoo...you were on the brain & I thought I'd say 'hey! L Jo
