Katie's struggle with this virus continues. For the past three days I have been applying medicated Blistex lip ointment to her lips and a little to the sores on her face. The sores on her face are looking much better. They have dried up and the red areas around them are shrinking. Her lips are looking a little better too. However, during a close inspection of her lips tonight I found another new sore on the underside/inside of her top lip again. This one doesn't seem to bother her as much as the previous ones and she did let me touch it to apply a little Blistex to the outside of it. I'm curious to see how this one will progress now that the other sores seem to be getting better.
Josh is also sick tonight. This morning he complained of a headache, but we thought it was from lack of sleep since Katie had woken everybody up last night during a bad dream. In her dream she was screaming and saying "Don't take me to the hospital!" None of us got much sleep last night. Tonight, as we were putting Josh to bed, Amy noticed that he felt warm so she took his temperature. He has a fever of just over 100 and he is complaining of the headache again. We'll keep an eye on him through the night and see how he's feeling in the morning. Maybe my parents will have two kids on their hands tomorrow...

Hey Hey Kelley family, it's a sick party. Abbie and Travis are very sick also. Abbie has fluid on her ears and a horrible cold. Travis has walking phenomena and is on lots of medicine.We have had several trips to the hospital for breathing treatments and plenty of trips to the drug store. Thank god for insurance. Travis also has a sore on his mouth that seems very painful. It sits just on the very edge of his lip smack dab in the middle of his top lip. I have put lots of chap stick on as well. Larry and I are both sick also.Hope all gets better soon for all of us. Take comfort in knowing , there is light at the end of the tunnel and it will be bright soon. Love Colleen
PS... hang in there Katie bug, and you too Josh. When were all better , we'll have to plan a play date.....
Heal! Heal! Heal! The mysterious stuff is so hard (and with cancer, a lot of things seem to be "unknowns").
Mollie loves Katie's hat and sunglasses; she's quite the accessorizer herself, so she can appreciate natural talent!
We are hoping you're all in better health soon!
