The Nelson family has been fighting the sickness bug on and off for about two weeks, and on Wednesday it finally bit hard. Kari took Jayden to the doctors only to discover that he was dehydrated and had elevated kidney levels (the bad one's :) ) So, with that in mind Jayden was admitted into the hospital in Valpo for a visit. At this wonderful vacation spot Jayden gets to sleep in a cage-like bed, get blood tests every two hours, hang out in his diaper, and gets all the juice that he can handle! Kind of like a trip to Vegas for some of you fine folks! :) We're keeping our fingers crossed that he'll be home for the weekend.
I finally went to the doctor on Thursday to get some antibiotics and nose spray. I've been having trouble with overall energy, my ears, and breathing here recently and good ol' doc says it's due most to the recent pollen and ragweed counts in the air along with a bit of sickness. Hopefully I'll get to feeling better, when I ran in my last running "race" I felt like I was breathing through a straw the whole time!
Maverik and Daddy are now done with school for a few months! We celebrated by visiting Jayden and getting lunch at the hospital, then went home in the evening and took a quick dip in the pool! Maverik made sure to tell me, "Daddy, I love the summer time!"
Basketball is off and running at Calumet, and we're so young that I'm not sure I could take my team to see a PG-13 movie! At this point it looks like we'll have a small handful of seniors that can contribute. Right now as it stands there are 3-4 sophomores and even a freshman that might end up helping us on the varsity level. We have a few games coming up this next Wednesday, it will give us a small indication if we can compete next season.
