Nancy,

I was awaiting your blog and so glad you and Dan had a marvelous time and got to see first hand the remnants of Sandy's destruction!!! Now for the bugs, and whatever else the two of you contacted I say a quick prayer, "Lord let it ALL come out"! Now hope you feel a bit better before Monday and if not try some of those home remedies your mom used to give you for just about anything you ever had wrong with you!!!

I hope you get front and center TODAY and feel a bit better or you can't enjoy the football games tomorrow and Monday night!!! See ya then!!

Nancy,

That was horrible. My nightmare come to life. thank heavens you made it thru the ordeal and are feeling better today.

You are fortunate that you daughter was there to help you out.

What an ordeal. The things we make it thru are amazing.

Please take care of yourself and get better soon.

Oh.My.Goodness! I'll pray with you that Dan misses the worst of the bug. He's already had enough with the seizure. So sorry the seizures keep coming. I have been really sick twice since Lauren had his stroke. Thankfully, both times I had family around when it started and I called in emergency private duty to help through the night. I can never figure out which is worse, Lauren having the bug or me having it and needing to take care of him. Now you've gone and shown me an option I had not considered!

Just lay low as much as possible until you get your strength back. That stuff zaps your energy big time.

I feel better and i think dan is "skirting" the bug.. my little genius daughter said dad only has a one third chance of getting it as bad as you and wade..she has kept track of the "family bug" and the stats and outcomes ( pun intended) -- and yep my worst case scenerio played out and i can see we would have survived it even with no daughter.. would have had to get rid of the carpet though ...HAHA.... face book pass on to me was something like----- only you are strong enough to live the life you have been given--- hope so........nancyl

ok so update -- i still have to use the bath room a lot so i can not venture out----- dan seems ok still.... oh lord please..... i feel ok just getting very tired everything is shooting through me still.... but i know i can take imodiam (sp) and stop it but - i am a believer in letting the bug run out after all the body usually knows what to do about its own problems.. but tomorrow if this continues i will take some... i am so sick of jello, crackers and toast..lol

finally feeling better.... but here is a intresting observation.. as you know i wore attends for a couple days - no choice there-- but now i am sorta chaffed - nothing to bad and i will be fine.. but it is a insight to how our loved ones may feel.. i actually invest in the new attends that came out that is by far softer than other brands ( i think) and they are spendy... but i had to ask my self - how comfortable is this?.. dan can and does stay dry most days ( never at night) and activly chooses to wear the attends vs underwear as he is so worried about a accident-- of course no solution just another stroke observation... blog it so i dont forget it i guess. nancyl
