I feel better now. It was a really great day as I posted previously until I put lotion on my hands and discovered a red streak going up my arm from my excema that won't heal. I go to Immediate Care only to discover that not only do I have an infection but also probably something called herpetic whitlow. Never heard of it? Yeah, me neither but the doctor almost seemed excited and told me I was "the interesting case of the evening". Great. Medically, that is not what you want to be. Apparently it is common in healthcare workers. So how come I have never heard of it?
Anyway, back on antibiotics and antivirals. I realize that I am not that sick. There are lots of people who are way worse off that me but man this makes me look forward to heaven where we won't be tied to these imperfect bodies.

Hope you heal quickly! Your blog is beautiful BTW :). Thanks for sharing the URL on FB today. Amen to the heaven comment. I often wonder what Luke will say to me on the other side... Hugs to you Kristen.

Kristin,
I am so sorry that you are under the weather again. I hope you can rest this weekend. Praying for you.
I'm so sorry Kristin! That is not news you expected or wanted to hear. I have been reminded a lot lately that God does not give us more than we can handle and as frustrating as it is to go through this it is a comfort to remember.
Also, I have been meaning to ask for prayer for Aimee. Her blurry vision and headaches came back this past week so she is up at OHSU this morning for a brain scan. (Didn't mean to hijack the post! Just wanted to remember to post and ask for prayer while I was thinking about it)
Like Sarah said, I hope you can relax this weekend! Have a safe trip.
