Sick and Tired
Today is day +14, Sarah has been back in the hospital since Sunday with a fever. Zen is staying with her because I am still not feeling well. I went to the doctor today; she said I must have a virus, along with being exhausted! It is not easy being away from Sarah, but I don't want to risk giving her my bug. Greg has been taking good care of me, and Sarah is in her father's capable hands. The good news is that all of the blood tests the doctors have done on Sarah are negative and her counts are still going up. The bad news is that she is still getting fevers, and the doctors do not want to discharge her until she is fever free for at least 24 hours. To say she is not happy is an understatement, especially since tomorrow is her birthday! My baby is turning 20, where has the time gone? The past few months have been quite a roller coaster ride, we are all ready for the ride to end so we can move on to better times. I am tired of excitement and uncertainty; I am so ready for boring old peace and quiet! Unfortunately, it appears that we will be on this ride for awhile longer, but it will end eventually. Stay strong Sarah; we will celebrate your birthday and your life tomorrow, and for years to come!
Don't stop fighting, you are the strongest person I know!
