Argghhh I am struggling. Just need to vent. I don't know if its quintens teeth or tummy or what, but he has been screaming all day off and on and did the same thing last night til midnight. I have about 1500 pounds of clean laundry to put away, and about that much to wash. My house looks like Christmas threw up here, I am still sick and coughing whenever I do anything, which I can't do anything for more than 5 minutes cause quinten cries, and now at 4pm my lunch is finally warmed and ready to eat yet I am stuck feeding quinten. The 1.5 Christmas cookies I had for breakfast before the dog got into the rest of them are just not doing it for me. I couldn't even ask anyone to come help because I don't want to get anyone sick. I feel like throwing in the towel, but then it would just be one more thing to wash. Why do things have to be so tough? Especially when we have to finish the ceiling before inspection which could be any day.
Backstory: I got very sick on Christmas Eve and had to drive home Christmas Day with a fever of 103. Quinten was sick the next day, and yesterday was Brody's turn. We wound up taking him to the ER in an ambulance because his fever sent him into a seizure. Never ever do I want to experience that fear again. He turned completely blue and was shaking and his eyes rolled back in his head. He would not respond to anything. I have never been so scared in all my life. Thinking about it again has me in tears again. We called 911 and the first one here was Cory our friend that is a city cop. He was much more level headed than we were, but still pretty shook up. He is Brody's bud! By the time we got to the ER he was starting to respond again and smiled some. His fever was up to 104.6 in the ambulance at one point. I am so glad he came out of it, and he is 100% better today. You wouldn't even know he was sick. Watch those little ones with fevers. No parents should have to see that!!
