good news/bad news

hello everyone! well i have some news....buuut i want to start with how my weekend went. ha. well friday afternoon i ran errands with mom! we went to the bank and petsmart and bed bath and beyond! i took it REALLY slow but felt great! didnt have a fever or anything! the girls came over and spent the night and they were great and it really made my night. it just lifted my spirits. saturday morning after bridgette left my mom madison and myself went to target! i was able to walk the whole store (sloooowly), but i walked it regardless! and i was just a little winded at the end. when we get home i was pooped and me and madison took a nap. when i woke up i had a fever. and didn't really feel well the rest of the night. but i still wanted to plan to go to church sunday. i woke up sunday feeling a little worn out but i was determined to go. i got ready and rode in to church. i was FREEZING the whole service. i had to wear my dads dress coat!! and made madison sit in my lap. i knew my fever was RISING RISING. i went to class with dad and just couldn't sit there any longer so we went and sat in the warm car. {which turned out to be a terrible idea!!} i got home and my fever was almost 103!!! oops. i just cooked myself like a baked potato! well my fever broke around 2:00 and i felt good the rest of the day. i still don't have an appetite at all! and i still run a fever at least once a day at some point. by monday morning i was discouraged AGAIN and knew the dr would want to see me monday afternoon. wellll dannette called monday morning with good/bad news.... one of the stool samples came back positive for C Diff Colitis...FINALLY! an ANSWER! i mean we all kinda figured thats what i had, but i sucked that we weren't FOR SURE and i was always guessing what if it is something else really serious?? not that C Diff isn't serious...but still. sooo this is good news that we KNOW why im having fevers and we KNOW why i dont have an appetite. but to be realistic it sucks thats what it is...its hard to get rid of for a healthy person much else ME! so PRAY hard my antibiotics start helping soon. im so thankful to the Lord that we found this because sometimes it is never found or it is found too late. and we caught this just in time. so hopefully we caught it in time for it to be easier to get rid of.

i won't have my computer for a few days, im having it worked on. {it has some SERIOUS issues}. so it may be a while before i post, so don't get worried! no news is good news.

until then,

Prayers:
~that we caught the colitis in time for it to be easier on the antibiotics to get rid of
~that my nausea will come under control so i can eat normally and gain some weight
~that my fevers will come under control so i will feel good all day and not lay on the couch any more
