Bennett might be just a tad better. He is still having heartburn pretty bad. He started taking Pepcid today. He said it has given him some relief. We are counting down the days he can stop taking the steroids – 2 ! He has been eating pretty good. He can only eat small quantities though because his stomach becomes upset or he feels nauseated. He took some zofran (anti-nausea med) today to try to help. He hasn’t taken this in months!

He still is pretty tired. He went with me to Marion to pick up his birthday cake. He stayed in the car while I ran most of our errands. He doesn’t feel up to doing any physical activity.

I was going to take the boys to the motor cross races in DuQuoin tonight but Bennett didn’t feel up to going. He was ready to get back to bed after our trip to Marion.

Sid is finally feeling better today after spending 2 1/2 days in bed. He is still weak and not eating much but I am sure that will come in a couple days. Our house spells like Lysol! We are thankful for the kind that says “kills flu viruses”. Hopefully it has. Plus prayers to God will keep Bennett from getting the flu.

Hamilton has been a real trooper through all of this. He entertained himself for the last 2 days while Sid and Bennett were in bed. With the weather and flu, I believe everyone is ready for Spring!

We will see what tomorrow brings, Bennett has a big day planned. He wants to go to Sunday school and than our family is coming over for his birthday lunch. Plus we need to work on some homework. Praying he feels up to doing all of this.

“Walk with God and trust his word, know your every prayer is heard…. for showers to refresh your soul, and seeds of faith to make you whole.”

Be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole.” Matthew 9:22
