We Are Sick

But on the road to recovery. I have Strep throat, and Allie has ear infection and throat infection. It sucks it really does. I swear this is way worse than child birth. I haven't been able to swallow my own saliva, and actually lost 8 pounds since Sunday. Allie as well hasn't eaten in a week, and lost weight to. But we r both on the rode to recovery. Sometimes you wish for a few seconds..lol.. that they would stay sicker longer just cause there content, qiuet..and lay on the couch.. even though it pains you when there sick, cause it's scary. I'm not an antibiotic person, i refuse to put my kids on them, cause i have heard many things, and read many things. But this go round, Allie and I are both on them. It's been years since i have taken any form of them, and Allie, maybe once in her life she has been on them, otherwise my doc and i both know it comes out on it's own, and that antibiotics arn't good for little ones. But with a few doses already, we both feel better.

I hope you both get better, sometimes for the better you just have to take the medication. Fell better soon!
