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!

Praying for you and your family Lois My father was in the military and so many times people forget the hardship of separation and worry for the safety of that loved one that the loved ones experience. I truly empathize with you and your family.
May the Lord Bless and Keep you and your dear sweet family, May you continually rest in Him as you walk through this valley.
Hugs,
Sue

I am wracking my brain for something good for coughing. Other than getting your hands on some codeine, I can't think of much. DANG. Get better soon!!! Hit the dr. up for codeine, and make SURE you ask fer the one with the anti-barf med added in (phenergan).

Stress makes everything worse. Get better and take your vitamins. When does your husband get home and will he be able to stay? Sandie

So glad to hear you are on the mend. Still praying for 100% soon. Stress can really do a number on your immune system. Try to take care of yourself, get plenty of rest, and let others help you out.
Hugs,

Wow - you just can't win...sure hope those antibiotics kick in soon. There has to be some connection to not having the best medicine at home (like grapes and ginger ale from a man in uniform!) 🙂 Get well quick, my friend.
Ninny says
Gosh, I hope you start feeling better soon! I can only imagine the anxiety you must feel with your husband deployed. Whether you try to squish it or not, it truly is there and your body is open to attack. It's a spiritual warfare, as well, with your soul being attacked daily. Your wonderful man WILL come home to you. So many are offering prayers on your behalf. Get well, Sunshine!
