I'm thinking, hoping, praying that the end of this illness that has been plaguing my family for weeks is in sight. Please. Please. Please.
I posted on Facebook that I don't think I have ever been this sick before. This has been horrible. The last few weeks are all kind of blurred together. But today I am not as miserable as I have been since last Thursday when phase II of this affliction settled into my lungs for an extended stay. I am beyond exhausted and I still have a horrible cough and a lot of congestion, but these things I can live with. The five days of excruciating body aches, head aches, a searing sore throat and complete inability to sleep because I was so uncomfortable were a bit much.
I feel like it was a complete blessing/miracle that I was even able to go to my friend's funeral. I took a bunch of medicine and went, although I barely had the energy to climb into the car when my friend picked me up. I think Heavenly Father knew I needed to be there and gave me just enough strength to make it through and I'm grateful for that. My last post was written in a complete drug-induced haze, but I'm glad it sort of makes sense. There is so much more that I could say--should say.
Okay, I'm about out of energy now. I really need this to be over soon.

I am so sorry you have been so sick. I hope you feel better soon. Your post on the realities of construction cost and time felt so true, as we are working on bathroom two and standing in lines to use the one working toilet.
I have been reading your posts on facebook and am so, so sorry. It is so hard when the whole family is sick like that, and when mom is sick and can't really rest. Hoping it is all gone very soon.
