Apologies...

I realized this evening with several phone calls that we have been remiss in updates causing some level of concern. Mia Culpa, Mia Culpa....

TJ saw his internist/endocrinologist on Thursday morning. He checked many things including heart issues, clot issues, lung issues, took 6 vials of blood and EVERYTHING was normal! The pulmonologist who admitted TJ last year who said there was no reason for him to see him. As a nurse this is very weird. Nobody I have seen gets so sick so fast and nobody gets better this fast without sequel from being so sick!

We have been laying low. Running a few errands as an excuse to get out in our lovely weather (cough, cough) and to stay awake during the day to get our schedules turned around. We are tired, cranky, feel disorganized and incredibly humbled and grateful. TJ is coughing still, but no fever, and up and about combined with resting.

Jon has been getting my laptop ready to send into Dell (the hard drive died) and Chip is learning how to make chicken soup from scratch in preparation for an outdoor overnight tomorrow. Only supposed to be -7'. It is a "shelter project" for an art class and he is the TA/den-mother for the mostly freshman group.

I will try to put together more thoughts on this whole deal in coming days. There are many layers and we only see a few of them.

Blessings to all!
