I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend.
I went back to the doctor on Thursday and am happy to
report that I now have bronchitis
on top of the throat infection and the ear infection.
The coughing has been pretty bad.
But I'm managing, feeling better every day.
I read a statistic the other day that 36 percent of
Army wives whose husbands are deployed overseas have
at least one mental health diagnosis
such as anxiety or a sleep disorder, etc.
Now I don't feel so lonely!
I wonder if there's a statistic of Army wives
whose husbands are deployed who
KEEP GETTING SICK?
I know I'm at the top of that list.
Enjoy your day!

and I'm still praying for you, Lois! What a rough time you have had, dear one! This too shall pass.
Elena says
You poor thing! I hope you get better quickly:)
Debbie says
Oh Lois I am sorry you have not been feeling well. It is surely the stress of it all as it definitely lowers your resistence. I am glad to hear you seem to be on the uphill swing of things though. I do try and remember to pray for you everyday, as I can so feel how hard it must be for you to have him gone. And yet! the year is already over half over. The time seems to be flying (hope it seems that way to you to) Hang in there! HUGS, Debbie

At Home With Amy says
Never say "how much sicker could I be", because you really don't want to find out. Saying prayers for you Lois that you will be feeling like your old self again real soon!
Warm Hugs,
AMY

Hi Sunshine!! I am praying that today the Lord chooses to heal you and fill your heart with joy!!
Glad to hear you're a bit better...when Randy went to Desert Storm I think I told you I was sicker than I have ever been in my life! I made it through with good rest, sunshine, and the touch of the Lord!! Sunshine CAN make a real difference!
Love you, Lois, and I am so proud to call you friend!
Love and hugs,
Becky

You poor thing! I hope you're feeling better soon! Any kind of stress does lower the immune system...I know you miss your hubby terribly! I hope you get better soon and STAY WELL!
Hugs,
Tammy
Stacey says

YUP, it's the stress! It lowers the immune system. You are an inspiration to me though, because you are getting through this year with the Colonel gone (and the year is half over already!!) So I know I can get through it too:) For me it's the waiting for the unknown, I think once my son is actually there and I get used to the new *empty nest* routine here at home it should get easier? I'm hoping:) I'm praying you get to feeling better soon!!!
Linda says
The good news is you sound like you are getting better! The bad news, stress does a number on your immune system! I am hoping you are doing better soon! Hang in there!
Hugs,
Linda
