My full and kooky life as a homeschooling mommy to 2 great kids, raising a child with HLHS (Hypolastic Left Heart Syndrome), coping with depression, following Jesus, and being much too camera happy.

Whew, we went to the pediatrician’s office this morning, and Elliot got swabbed for all of the above. Negative!

He’s on the couch recovering and watching his favorite shows. Poor guy threw up last night, and the strain from it immediately caused tiny spots to show up on his face and upper chest area. It’s called Petechiae. It’s amazing how quickly they appear.

Waiting for us to get our shoes on while he gets some fresh air. Feeling miserable.

Although an uncomfortable inconvenience, I’m glad he’s on the mend. I see a smile and more sitting up on the couch.

    Hopefully, his misery will soon be over, poor little guy.

      Thanks, friend!! At this point, I don’t even know what I’d do with a long break. Sleep!! He has been feeling better since this afternoon. He ate and is talking. Yesterday, he wasn’t doing any of those things.
      Thanks for your encouragement!!

    Elliot looks woeful here – feeling badly but happy he did not have any of the bugs going around right now. 🙂
