Sickness

The sick bug has attacked the Robinson household. Mark went to Patient First on Sunday morning with an aweful cough. His diagnosis was an upper respiratory infection. The doctor gave him cough medicine and an antibiotic. I had been sick to my stomach since early Friday morning and got so weak Sunday afternoon. Mark took me to Patient First but they wanted me to go to the ER just in case I had some intestinal blockage. Thankfully, my parents were still in town from Abigail's birthday party and were able to watch Abigail while we were at the ER. After almost 3 hours in the ER, blood work, 2 iv's of fluids and an abdominal CT scan, my diagnosis was a stomach virus. The doctor said that it had to work itself out of my system and could take 7 days to clear up. Those were some miserable days! Once we got home from the ER, Abigail woke up vomitting. The next day she had diarrhea and more vomitting. We took her to Patient First and her diagnosis was strep throat and stomach virus. The doctor gave her antibiotics for the strep throat and suggested bland food for the stomach virus. We have been quite a sick bunch. Please pray for quick and complete healing for all of us.
