Sinus Infection

So, the kids and I were at the pediatrician's office this morning at 8:30 am.  The conclusion.... Zachary is fine and Anna Grace has a sinus infection.  Yep, I was really surpised to hear him say that - but he felt certain its a sinus infection.  So, he started Anna Grace on 10 days of Augmentin (sp?).  When we got home I called Dr R to let him know what happened.  Dr R feels like since she will be finishing up day 10 of her antiobiotic on pre-op day that she should be fine for surgery, but he called the surgeon Dr B today to let him know what was going on with AG.  Dr B will make the ultimate decision and Dr R said he would call me tomorrow (or whenever he hears back from Dr B) and let us know what the plan is.  In the meantime, we are to plan to still have the Nov 9 surgery.  So.... as of right now we are still planning on heading to Charleston next week (probably Tuesday) with pre-op on Thursday and surgery on Friday.

Whew... what a whirlwind of a day!

Because of all the excitement of the day I got no homeschooling done today.  Zachary was pretty happy about that I have to say!  After we got home from the doctor and pharmacy the kids and I decided to build a fire in our fireplace.  We've lived here for almost 2 years and have never built a fire.  In light of the fact that we still have no heat, a fire seemed like a great idea.  It turned out to be a fantastic idea.  The kids and I really enjoyed building the fire and it really heated up the living room a lot more than I expected it would.  It was fun sitting in front of the fire playing and telling stories and was just a lovely way to end the day today!  Even when we do get our heat fixed we will defintley continue using our wood buring fire place this winter.

As for the heat being broken... we hopefully will have it fixed before we head to Charleston, but the rest of the week is supposed to warm up pretty nicely during the day so I think we're going to be just fine!

Just a few prayer requests for today....

(1)  That Dr B would have the wisdom to make the right decision regarding Anna Grace's surgery and the timing of it.

(2)  That AG will respond to the antibiotics and that it will clear her sinus infection up completley.

(3)  That Brian will be able to get his work wrapped up without any issue or incident.

(4)  That we would remain healthy.

(5)  That the Lord will give AG great courage and peace leading up to and during our time at MUSC.
