So, I guess I spoke too soon about Chloe getting better.\u00a0 And about not catching it.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday night we went to bed feeling fine and by the middle of the night both Tim and I were feeling awful–he had the shivers and I ended up throwing up in the early morning.\u00a0 Combined with body aches and intensely tight lungs, it was no fun at all.\u00a0 So, I got up early and quick canceled my morning lessons and booked us all appointments with the doctor that day.\u00a0 I know it seems a bit hasty to go to the doctor so soon, but Tim has been struggling with tight lungs for a few weeks now and Chloe had a high fever on Sunday which developed into a nasty cough by Wednesday… and I have the contest this weekend!\u00a0 So if it was Strep or something like that I wanted to get on medicine right away so I wouldn’t be contagious.<\/p>\n
So, we went to the doctor.<\/p>\n
And he said it was nothing.\u00a0 Probably just a virus–like viral bronchitis or something like that–that will simply pass with time.\u00a0 He did give me an inhaler to help loosen my lungs (Kylene, you would laugh because I had to sit through a demonstration on how to use one!).<\/p>\n
Tim even had x-rays done of his lungs since this has been an ongoing problem, and they still couldn’t find anything.\u00a0 So, he was prescribed an inhaler as well.<\/p>\n
Chloe wasn’t prescribed anything.\u00a0 She’s doing the worst out of all of us.\u00a0 She slept basically all day yesterday, maybe up for 4-5 hours the entire day.\u00a0 Today we’ve been trying to keep her up a littler longer but she’s been super lethargic and had chills tonight.\u00a0 I’m hoping her little body kicks whatever this is soon…<\/p>\n
On a positive note, however, I’m feeling much<\/span> better today.\u00a0 In fact, I still taught all of my afternoon\/evening lessons yesterday and today.\u00a0 I was very careful to not sit too close to the students and sanitize a lot… I’m unbelievably thankful to not have taken the brunt of this “bug” especially with contest only two days away.<\/p>\n Anyway, that’s the update from here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So, I guess I spoke too soon about Chloe getting better.\u00a0 And about not catching it.
