This week as been a harrowing one for the family. It took nearly a week but we figured out that strep was causing all the sickies in the family. First Justin, then that same day Caleb and Joshua were tested positive. I tested negative but given an antibiotic prescription in case my symptoms got worse. By Friday my throat was so sore I could barely swallow my own spit. So I started my antibiotic and so glad I did. I am still not 100% but at least I can swallow with less pain now. Having Step throat is no fun, folks!
I'd like to take a moment of silence to honor Alexander Flemming for his discovery of penicillin, for which my throat and that of my whole family is forever grateful for.
Peace and stay healthy!
