Sick little boy

My Jacob (5) is sick. He woke me up at 6:30 vomitting, and so the day has went. He's in my bed tonight, since he's on the top bunk. Please say a prayer for my little man. He told me this evening "I don't like this virus that's inside of me, it's time for it to go". I agree, it does stink being sick and I honestly can't remember the last time he was sick.

I have been sick a lot lately as well which other than say some sinus issue's, it'd been quite a while since I was last sick and in the last 4 wks I've been sick 4 times. Four weeks ago I had the all out flu, the achiness and well all the other joys that go with it, the week after I was great. Last Wednesday I was sick again all day, just my stomach and by the next morning (which was my birthday) I felt fine. Then on Tuesday I was sick again, same as the week before just my stomach (as in the rest of my body felt fine I didn't have any aches throughout my body, my head felt fine, etc...just my stomach was killing me so I got the glory of being sick ugh). Yesterday morning it was still hanging on a little but by noon I felt fine. I was thinking maybe the last 2 weeks was a result of stress and missing Chad, but since Jacob's sick today I am guessing it's just some nasty bug. I spend a great deal of time with the same people throughout my weeks, primarily people from chapel and I know a bug has been going through with different people so I guess I've just been the lucky one to get it 3 times now.

Please pray that I will stay healthy from here on out. It's so hard to be sick, when Chad's gone. Please pray that Jacob will feel better tomorrow, and pray that Jackson just stays healthy over all.

Thanks. I'll try to update when I can. I've been going to bed earlier and haven't been online as much.

God Bless

I hope by now little Jacob is on the mend, and you're holding your own, as well. I know the stress is tough to manage, but the time is passing in the meantime. Hang in there!

Do you have GAS in your house... if you do why don't you have the gas checked, just for your safety. won't hurt             DIANE

No we don't have gas in our apartment...remember we're in Germany in a Military apt! The heat is via radiators and via the US Army housing regulations we have to open our windows open at least 1 hr a day, and because I get hot very easily I ALWAYS have at least one or two windows cracked open at all times! Our stove is electric...so it's all safe in here. There's a "lovely" bug that's been going around our base for a couple months and I am pretty sure that's what it is...and it's flu season.

Christy, take care of yourself; will pray for you and Jacob. Happy belated birthday.....

I would bet you are getting sicker than ususal this year due to being in a new environment plus the stress of being a "single" mom and concern over Chad, etc. Maybe when you are feeling better, you can get some vitamin C and take that daily.....
