Finalmente

Last night I woke up and took my tylenol with codein - which I promptly threw up. I've decided that the tylenol isn't helping me, so for the time being I won't take it. Tyler called the nurse today and she called in a prescription for an anti-nausea medication. I hope Tyler picked it up. It's bad, people. I want to throw up everything: yogurt, noodles, gatorade, even water. The nurse also said that I need to be drinking 8-10 glasses of water a day. HOW? After 2 sips of water I am grabbing for my throw-up bowl. *sigh*

On the brighter side, Anna began school today. My big 2nd grader. Wow. She loves school.

This evening my visiting teachers, Marie & Anisa, came over and did some house cleaning. I was so appreciative of their help. I can't do much when I feel so nauseous and poor Tyler - he is trying to maintain some sort of order between the children, clean house, cooking, work, his last 2 weeks of MBA projects, plus taking care of his pitiful wife. Please keep Tyler in your prayers - he is trying so hard to keep it all together. He is a good man, I love him.

Hope you get feeling better soon! It's bad enough to be recovering from surgery and doubly bad to be trowing everything up. So not fun!

I had some wonderful help in packing today from some of the dear women in my ward. I am so grateful for their service. They accomplished in a couple of hours what would have otherwise taken me DAYS to do myself and took a HUGE burden off my shoulders. I know all about appreciating help from others!
