Things Thrown Your Way

This week has been absolutely crazy!  On Sunday I took my son to urgent care for a ridiculously high fever and cough.  It turned out that he had RSV.  To help treat this condition we needed to get a nebulizer and since the insurance companies are closed on weekends we had to pay for it out of pocket.  This was almost impossible, but we made it happen.  The next day I took him to his pediatrician for a follow-up appointment where he was also diagnosed with pneumonia.  So, two antibiotics later he is slowly starting to feel better.  I hate it when they are sick, especially when it is an illness that makes breathing more difficult.  My son is two years old, so communication is still not the easiest thing.  To top it all off we had a really bad snow storm and now have four foot of snow in our front yard.  My fiance went out plowing from 2am-6pm yesterday and today has been out since midnight.  I don't plan on him coming home until way later this evening.  The snow was so bad that the national guard was called to rescue people from their vehicles and we had reports of ten foot and higher drifts.  We haven't had a snow storm like this in over ten years.  A positive side to all this negativity is that my son is feeling better and I will soon be able to take him out to enjoy the snow that we just got.  I love how all of life's negativity that is thrown your way always has a positive outcome.
