UGH! UGH! UGH! That's all I can say!!

When it rains at our house it seriously does POUR!!
So, we took all the kids to the Doctor yesterday. Ashlyn and Ammon had been fighting a fever & horrible cough for a couple days, then Alley started in and then the baby. Ashlyn and the baby started puking. Yuck! Everybody was not good and Adler was for sure not good, hardly eating and not holding much down and hardly able to breath! So I knew we needed to head to the Doctor.
The run down from the Doctor was... all four kids have ear infections, Ammon is also very wheezy and needed breathing treatments. Adler has RSV along with his ear infections.
This Stinks!! Really!!
We had to take Adler to the Hospital to get suctioned out. They basically tie his arms down with blankets and I have to hold his head still and they stick long tubes in his nose and try to get some of the junk out. I hate it! And I have to drive to St. George everyday for at least 7 days to get it done. They said if I could do it ever 4 hours, that would be best or even if I could do morning and night. I wish I could because he really needs it! But, driving to St. George everyday 2 times or more a day???!!! We really can't afford it! I hope little Adler will be okay with the once a day.
I'm not sure I can handle this! I get really nervous for the nighttime especially, that's when the fevers come out the worst and Adler just doesn't sleep because he can't breath and I don't sleep either.
I walked away with 2 bags full at the pharmacy and the lady was like "Good Luck." {haha, yes we need all the luck we can get.} I wish I had 3 other clones of me right now and maybe one extra just in case! Let's hope this goes away real fast and that we can stay healthy for the rest of the year! =) Ha, I'll probably be the next one sick! =/ if I survive this week! =)

Oh my goodness Angela... I was sitting here whining about all my deadlines at work... you put it all back in perspective for me. Projects and rush orders aren't so bad at all! I wish I were out there visiting now so I could come help with some of the running around or something. Hang in there...I'll be thinking of you guys.
