As previously blogged, Kimberly has been really sick. She has been battling mono. We are 3 1/2 weeks since her first fever. With mono you need to let it just run its course. Well on Wednesday July 2 when we woke up she was worse than ever! She hadn't eaten in a week and a half and she had stopped basically stopped drinking. So I took her to the doctor. On the way to the doctor I noticed that she was so yellow. The doctor sent us to hospital to be admitted. After we finally got to the floor, we were in room 234, she had already received 2 bags of fluid and started perking up a little it but her urine still looked like PEPSI! So we spent to agonizing nights in the hospital. She did very well with all that was happening. Even the THREE times they had to poke her to get the IV started. She progressed greatly and we were released on the 4th of July! Thank god! Her liver numbers are still not normal so she is still yellow but that will take time. We will follow up wit Dr. Segal and have a ultrasound in a few weeks just to make sure that her spleen and liver are returning to normal size. As for her she is still limited to activity and she is still prone to infection because mono screws with your immune system. But we will be able to enjoy fireworks as a family and hope fully continue on the road to recovery! Thanks to all who prayed for her and to all who took time from their busy schedules to stop by and visit her. It means so much to all of us!

Glad she is feeling a little better and will get to rest at home. We will keep you all in our prayers.
Love you all!
