sick??

Unfortunately, I have not been feeling much better, and the TOBI and Cipro just don't seem to be doing their job! My fever had been staying away, but spiked again this morning. I've been keeping in touch with my coordinator, and if things don't get better in the next day, back to Club Med it is! UGH!!!! I'm trying to wait this thing out...hoping it will get better. I really can't afford to miss classes right now. But I also want to feel better....quite a dilemma. I called in sick from work today and have been sleeping pretty much the entire day, with the exception of maybe an hour or so.

I skipped my lecture class tonight, but are going to try and attempt my lab class, which starts at 7:00. It's one of the classes, that if you miss, you really get behind. So we'll see how it goes and if i can make it through the 3 hr class.

Also...a few of you have asked about my friend Emily. She is doing much better. She does have a trach, but her vent settings have been lowered each day. She is initiating the majority of her breaths on her own. She has been alert and communicating with her family by writing, and even wanted to try typing on the computer today. God has definitely been good, and i think finally, she is going in the right direction. Please continue to pray for her, and for a quick and complete recovery! She has had a really long and tough road!
