A big thank you to all who left kind comments wondering where I have been.
I thought I was only gone for about two weeks, but I guess time flies when you are NOT having fun!
It has been a month of bronchitis all around. I have never, ever felt so sick. I even spent a whole day in bed as I literally couldn't move or keep my eyes open. I heard from a friend later that hubby told her he had never seen me like that before. Even when I am sick, I can normally keep going, but I just couldn't. It was not a good time!
Whirlwind spent a whole week hardly moving from the couch and sleeping for hours every day. And everyone had it, some less than others! Legoman only had about four days off school, Whirlwind two weeks and is still coughing a little, Cuddlepie was the least bothered by it - didn't seem to keep his energy levels down!
Added to that was the fact that our internet has been playing up and was down for two weeks. I am not computer literate enough to spend ages trying to fix these things - I just want them to work!
I found out today that the lovely Terri from Darling Downs Diaries has had a terrible fall and has broken her leg in four places. She is currently undergoing surgery and a stay in hospital. Cheryl from Homespun Devotions posted more information here.
I would appreciate if you could join me in praying for Terri during this time - for a speedy recovery, for her family, and her emotional well being during this difficult time. Terri has had to travel to a hospital three hours or so from home for her surgery, which would make it more upsetting, I think.
Hopefully I will be back with you all more regularly now! And thank you again for all the kind comments - you are all wonderful!
Oh dear! I think it has been a particularly bad one this year. I hope you are all on the mend and Spring brings warmth and good health for you all. We were all sick for the whole of August and like you I usually can soldier on but was so sick hubby stayed home from work to look after me. I'm glad it is all behind us. Your friends' fall sounds awful! I thought I had it bad with an hour drive to the hospital. Wishing her all the best and a good procedure and outcome. All the best, Zena xx
ReplyDeleteIt has been a bad one going around this year. So glad it is all over for you too! Thank you for your kind words.
DeleteOh dear it sounds as if all in your home have had a nasty time. Hopefully with Spring in the air you will all soon be your 'old' healthy selves again. Goodness.....how horrible for Terri. I can't imagine how painful breaking your leg in four places would be; it must be excruciating. I will most certainly add Terri and her family to my ever growing prayer list. Take care Jayne.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your prayers. I agree, I cannot imagine how painful it must have been and will be for a while as I assume there will be lots of rehab as well.
DeleteI have just been to your blog and there have been no new posts. How are you going? You have been in my prayers.
DeleteSo glad to see you back Jayne.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your illness and your friends fall. I will remember all of you in my prayers.
I hope that Spring brings a new found energy for you.
God Bless,

Thank you so much - it is good to be back! I have missed checking in with everyone!
DeleteIt is lovely that spring is here, isn't it? I am slowly getting my energy back.
Hope you are feeling better, you and your friend will be in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I am slowly returning to normal. I so appreciate your prayers.
DeleteSo glad you are all on the mend. I think this flu going around is particularly nasty. Praise God I have been OK but the two little ones had is bad and Nicholas is till sick after 2 weeks. I also met a lady today who is still recovering after a month. Also I pray for a speedy and complete recovery for Terri in Jesus' name. Amen.
ReplyDeleteIt really is terrible. I hope your little ones will recover soon as well. Thank you for your prayers for Terri.
DeleteHey Jayne, I am only starting to look around the blog world again and I want to thank you so much for your mention of my accident and your request for prayers for me. I can't tell you how much comfort it brings realising that friends are praying for me, what a blessing. Thank you so much. Every time we drive past your place I think of you, I hope your are all well again. Blessings and thank you xxxx
