It's been a really long time since I've updated but there hasn't been much going on. I was thinking to myself that it had been a fairly uneventful couple of weeks and I'm fairly certain I jinxed myself big time.

We had our second visit to Dr. Williams and everything looked great. He was able to answer the questions we had and as always was very reassuring. We got another picture of Burt Carl and h/h/i's heart rate was in the normal range as well. He filled us in on all the testing that is available such as the tests that test for the genetic defects. I don't think we are going to do any of those that actually involve the fetus. We will however do the tests that are actually done on us. So overall it was a very good visit.

Friday passed without issue until the late night and Kara started getting sick. She had to get up early the next morning to attend a science kit training in service for the school system. She got up and mentioned not feeling well but went ahead and left. She returned home around 10 o'clock with severe vomiting and sore throat among other things.

She has had 6-8 confirmed H1N1 cases in her classroom alone this year and we both were pretty panicked at this point. We called the on-call doctor to see what we needed to do and she was very helpful. She called in a prescription for some Zofran along with some Tamiflu. Her mom came over and did what only moms are able to do and I think that helped big time. She medded up and rested for most of the day and was feeling a lot better by the evening.

She was even able to take part in our Patrick Swayze'athon that took place last night. It makes me sad that Point Break is actually probably better than Roadhouse but it seems as though it's true. I really dislike Keanu Reeves. Roadhouse is still better than Days of Thunder though. Thankfully she doesn't seem to be running a fever today but she is still not feeling her best but it's still a huge improvement from yesterday. Hopefully we will keep moving forward and she will be able to return to her normal self. I'm not sure I'm going to make it through many more mornings like that. I can't even imagine everything Kara is going through.

Just posting a quick update. Nothing has really changed since the last blog. Kara has had more good days than bad recently it seems. Her bedtime seems to get earlier and earlier by the day. I think when she does manage to stay up "late" it's purely out of spite. She likes to stay awake to enjoy the nights that she feels good. We don't go back to the doctor for another couple of weeks. If nothing comes up between now and then you may not hear much from me. I don't really see any need in putting up pointless posts everyday.
