Hi All
I just wanted to show everyone i'm still around. I spent 3 fun fill nights and four days in the hospital this last week, i got to come home today!!!!! Right after my surgery, i got the bad flu virus that is going around, that in return turned in to pneumonia and a really bad sinus infection. The base put me on an pediatric antibiotic, which i was allergic to, so that just made matters worse, because i started throwing up everything, no food stayed no water, everything came right back up.. So i call my doctor's office and said to go to the ER in Greenville, they  put me in, and Dr Mac wanted me to stay extra days to get in antibiotic through IV. Everything was low, i was in bad bad shape. Now i'm feeling great, praying i don't get sick again, Dr Mac said i'll probably have to do IV antibiotics for now on until about a year out due to me being allergic to so much grow up meds, and there isn't enough pediactric meds out there.. 
Just wanted to say hi, and let everyone know i wasn't ignoring emails and what not. just really really sick is all.. Now on a good bill of health so i hope it stays that way.

That had to be scary right after surgery!   I'm glad things are better for you.  Rest and get plenty of fluids.

Oh sweetie - so sorry to hear you've been down and out. Sounds like Dr. Mac and the Pitt Palace were taking great care of you. Isn't he the greatest.? Take care of yourself and post when you're up to it.
