WHAT A WEEK

We started out Spring Break with a lot of fun things planned. Monday we went to the movies. Axtan woke up with a fever of 99 degrees and had it most of the day with a nasty cough. I knew we had a very busy week a head of us plus we had family coming to stay with us Thursday for the weekend. Paislee had an ear infection the Friday before so I decided I better get Axtan to the doctor and get him on some antibiotics too. I assumed he had the same thing sister had. Tuesday instead of going to the movies like I had planned I took Axtan to the doctor. After she examined him, she told me she wanted to test for one more thing and would be right back. After about 10 minutes she came back to let me know Axtan had RSV. She informed me that with the test coming back positive for RSV and the 104 degree temperature that he now had she would like to admit him to the hospital. My face must have told quite a story because the doctor said how sorry she was and then gave me a list of reasons he really needed to go. I was in no way going to try and change her mind, if he was sick my first priority was to be getting him better, but I sure had a lot to do the rest of the week. I felt so bad for Rylan & Paislee, it was their spring break and now mom was going to be gone. Luckily they were in heaven going back and fourth between both grandmas. Axtan and I spent 4 lovely days at Summerlin Hospital and by day 3 I wanted out of there so bad. I had not bathed sense Tuesday morning and really needed to get home to get the beds changed before my company came. Luckily Thursday morning my mom had a few hours that she could come stay with Axtan while I went home. I went to get in my car only to find my wind bashed in and my dvd player and radio stolen. I tried really hard but I sat in my car and just cried. All I wanted was one hour to run home and sure enough some jerk took that away from me. Instead I sat in my car and dealt with the insurance. All I could think about was laying in a hot bath, instead I now had to meet two deductibles. I sure could think of a few better ways to spend spring break with the money we just spent.
