Quarantined

OK, maybe we aren't officially quarantined, but I feel like we should be! As of late, I am just not sure how safe it is to come to our house. In the last month or so we have had two visits from the fire department due to 911 calls, two ER visits (one for Spencer and one for me), two IV bags, 4 vials of blood taken, one chest x-ray, 2 urine samples, 35 vomits (me), a week of fevers from Spencer, two days of fever with Olivia, a total of 3 seizures, another 2 days of Spencer with fever accompanied by sore throat, and Kevin is going on week three of his "smokers cough." Yeah. I think we have filled our sick quota for this year, and NO, I am not pregnant (although it would have make the puking worth it).

Spencer had another fever seizure on Saturday morning after his fever spiked. This time it was a grand mal. So much scarier. Thankfully I knew what was going on and what to do. I can't imagine if I would have experienced that the first time. When the fire department arrived it was the same crew that came a few weeks ago with the exception of a person or two (thanks for moving to CA Melanie). It helped me not to feel so ridiculous somehow. No worries, that feeling came later as the calls started flooding in later that day from curious and concerned neighbors. Luckily we were able to just take him to his doctors office instead of the ER. We were happy to find out that he should be growing out of this soon. He just needs a tight regiment of Tylenol and Motrin. I am beginning to feel like we should buy their stock.

Don't worry. We really are happy and relatively healthy. I truly think we have been blessed with great health and are grateful that we are just dealing with minor issues. You may just want to think twice before visiting! ;)
