Not A Good Day

That last post was written solely by Stewart. It was his very first blog post, and it was really hard for him to write. He's a very personal person and has a hard time sharing his feelings with people. I thought it was really good though, didn't you?

Anyway, we can usually tell in the morning when we first wake up it's going to be a "Good Day" or a "Bad Day". a Good Day is only passing out around 10 times or less, like yesterday. That was a relatively good day. A Bad Day is one like today.

This morning Keagan woke up for the day at 8, which meant that Hayden did too. We like to cuddle and play with the kids in our bed before we get up and get ready for the day, so that they get some one-on-one time before the day gets too hectic or Stewart gets too sick. A day like today doesn't let us have that time. Stewart got Keagan for me this morning because my stomach has been really sore.Then he grabbed Hayden and came back to bed. While we were laying in bed, listening to the radio, Stewart passed out around 6 times. I got up and got ready while Stewart and Keagan took naps, and Hayden chilled in the bathroom with me. Then I got Hayden dressed and Keagan dressed and fed again. By 10:00 this morning, Stewart had passed out around 15 times, the only time that he had even stepped out of bed was to grab the boys.

We can't let Stewart being sick stop us from living, so we ran to do our errands. We all piled in the car and spent a few hours in town doing various things. It required some walking around, but we stopped a lot and let Stewart rest when he needed it.


tewart's parent's came into town to see his brother's son perform in the Youth Extravaganza or something, so we spent a little time with them at our house. While they were here, Stewart laid on the couch and passed out a few more times. When they left, I stuck dinner in the oven (a delicious pasta casserole our neighbor gave to us!) and made some yummy cauliflower and cheese. Stewart cleaned a bunch of viruses off of our computer, before he passed out on the floor.

I know that the day isn't over, but I'm not looking forward to the rest of it! I know that it's not going to get any better! I'm just crossing my fingers that tomorrow will!

PS Here's something that some of our AMAZING neighbors are doing for us! Please attend if you can, and if you can't send the flyer on to your family and friends!
