I'm Sick - Again

So - I have strep throat for the 5th time this year! My doctor is referring me to an ENT (ear nose throat) specialist where we will discuss removing these annoying tonsils. A tonsilectomy is not something I am looking forward to, but if it will help me stop getting sick I can endure the 10-20 days of recovery. Aparently the procedure is more painful as an adult and the recovery is twice as long. After having 2 c-sections, a DNC, wisdom teeth pulled, etc... I am sure I can handle the recovery. I just hope my family will be able to endure me being out of commission for a few weeks.

I also have to have the boys tested to see if they are strep throat carriers (meaning they have strep but no symptoms). My doctor thinks that maybe someone in the house is a carrier and keeps infecting me. So far we know it's not Ryan, I have to now go see if the boys have it.

So much fun (she whisper's sarcastically). Oh well - I am just glad Ryan is such a great husband and dad because he is totally picking up the slack. What a great guy!

I just had strep throat as well but it was the first time in my life. No one else in the fam got it, but are you saying they could have had it but not had the signs of it? Aww I hope you get better soon.
P.s. I love carrie singing Ill stand by you. So beautiful!
