This year for Memorial Day weekend was an interesting one. We left on Saturday Morning to go to Logan to visit my brother and his sweet family, to have lots of fun! Well that didn't happen, after we got to Logan I started to not feel so good, thinking oh it's just from being in the car
( I get carsick sometimes), so anyway I thought it was just that. So when we got there the kids played together and went crazy....and me and Brit just sat and visited while Devin and Trav went to the shooting range. Then the guys came back and That night we decided to go out for dinner, while it was at dinner that it really hit me that I DID NOT FEEL GOOD! Everything I looked at made me want to *barf*, and my head was pounding like never before, every noise really made it worse.... So anyway I told them I needed to go back to my brothers house and lay down.....and that's exactly what I did. I slept for about 3 hours and woke up feeling so much worse. I thought what is wrong with me? It must just be the flu I thought. So I took a nice Hott (on the hottest setting I think) and it felt so goood! My muscles ached and I was freezing! Terrible way to spend the weekend! Anyway blah blah long story short, I was very sick all that night, I couldn't keep anything down and I was very very dehydrated. I woke up Sunday morning and told Devin he needed to take me to the clinic, something was really wrong.We got to the clinic, and they took blood and all that yucky stuff and found that I had a severe Kidney Infection. And was very very dehydrated! So they started a IV of fluids and 2 liters of fluids, medicine for nausea, and some pain medicine, and 5 hours later, I was feeling much better! Not 100 % but much better Thank Heavens. The Doc was very nice and the nurses couldn't have been better, they took really good care of me! After that my sweet hubby came back to pick me up and I just rested the rest of the day and took it easy. Finally on Monday (the day we were going home) I was feeling pretty good, so we took the kiddos to the park to play and afterward went to get some Yummy ice cream. Not the Memorial Day weekend that we had planned but oh well, what do you do?? I'm so grateful for modern medicine and awesome nurses (yes Brit that's you) and doctors.
