After years of being the one with the sickest kid in the hospital and having attained kind of a celebrity status here as a result of it, it has been, for me, like reconnecting with family members I haven't seen in a while! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas as well, I know we did. Snow, but no ice-a perfect Bing Crosby White Christmas!
Everyone, except Bill and I caught the stomach flu but not until after Christmas, but I think they dialyzed it out of Nathan! He was so sick I thought they would need to put him in for Christmas. As his treatment went on, he was stronger and more alert! Go figure! Is anyone else's kid infamous for being admitted on holidays? Ha Ha! (Okay, he and Annalise had it BEFORE Christmas, everyone else the day after!)
