Pneumonia- take 2... or 3... I'm loosing count...

So I have pneumonia again. This time it felt worse than the first time. I don't know if I got it from Ruby, I don't think I posted here that Ruby got it too, poor thing! or if I just didn't get over it all the way the first time. Regardless, it's been over a week now of extreme tiredness, coughing, fever(at the beginning) and tightness, pain, and shortness of breath. Apparently this takes about 6 weeks to fully recover from.. Guh... there goes the summer! AND I've been teaching a hooping class once a week, so I'm trying to figure out if I should cancel or what... Anyway.. Not a happy post, but this is where we are at! I went to the docs yesterday to get a check up and just make sure things are getting better, he said I have pluerisy, the plural cavity around the lungs is inflammed with some fluid. Hopefully between the antibiotic, steroid, and inhaler I'm on, plus the lung herbs I'm working with, this will all resolve soon-ish!

How are you?? :)

I hope you feel better soon. I cant believe the twins are 9 months old and we still havent gotten together! At this rate, it will be their first birthday party, LOL!

I am so sorry you are sick again! Please let me know if there is ANYTHING we can do (dinners, etc). We'd be happy to help!
