Sickness is taking it's toll

I know I've been rambling on about Briana's sickness these past few days. I've prayed about it, hoped and so far, Nada. Her fever has spiked, dropped, raised and lowered for four days straight. Today, she went to the doctor and the diagnosis was pneumonia. I couldn't believe it. She's on medication now and hopefully, her lungs will begin to clear up in a couple of days and her fever diminish.

Now, my wife is sick. We're not even through with this first wave of illness, and my wife's now offline. The boys have or recently had colds, so I don't know if they're immune or not, and I'm not feeling so good. However, I have to keep going, no matter what. The family needs me to be healthy and my work is at the all time busiest part of the year in Legislative session. Absence isn't something to take lightly. Why can't we achieve longstanding health? It seems like someone is sick in our house every other week.

Please continue to life our family up in prayer. The constant bombardment of physical sickness is really hard to deal with, when multiple people are all sick at once, yet layered in a way to show little sign of improvement anytime within the next several days and they need you to care for them. Add to this the everyday pressures of work, etc. It's hard to bear.

Good Night
