Where in the world has Melissa been??

To be completely honest my commitment to the blog is not what it used to be. I think that's a good thing though. I started this as a way to keep everyone in the loop when it was just too hard to talk about the horrific experiences our family was going through. I hoped to keep it going through all of the good as well but with being so busy living it, sitting down and using my brain to write these simple notes has sadly become tiring. So by no means am I stopping the blog- I repeat, the blog must go on! However, I am officially slowing it down.

The last few weeks have been big time sucko for Brett and I. Being a hospital transient family has finally caught up with us and we (Brody) brought home MRSA. Brett had a very large basses removed from his stomach and a few weeks later I had one also. They literally cut a huge deep hole and leave it open. It was sooo painful and just a nightmare logistically with caring for the kids. We are both on antibiotics with crazy side effects. Once those finally healed we both got very very sick Sunday. It was so bad I went to the hospital yesterday to make sure it wasn't MRSA related elsewhere in the body other than the skin. It's not! Thank g-d! But today shingles popped up on my arms! Being sick and stressed for so long brought my old enemy back!!

So I think it's probably a little easier to understand now why updates have been few and far between and why we still are not doing all of the normal get togetherness and things we expected to be doing by the time the kids were 3!!! Wow what a rough few years it has been...
