He has Mono.  So now I have the pleasure of keeping him separated from us and waiting on him because he's stuck in the bedroom.  On top of caring for the kids, we have 5 therapies today. Mand my mom went out with a friend so I am on my own.

There is nothing worse than a man with any illness.  Because of course they are always "dying".  Mono does suck--I got it after college and actually, was one of the "lucky ones" to have the virus still in me--referred to as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.  Ugh.  It's like having the flu about 75% of the year. 

BUT still nothing compared to dealing with a sick man.  AND of course our own "other children" as I refer to our family as.  LOL.  I feel for you!!!!  Stay sane girlfriend.

Wow- I feel for you guys!

I was diagnosed with Epstein Barr (form of mono) in December after being super nauseous for 3 months and not knowing why (I even took a pregnancy test a few times- and, mind you, my husband had a vasectomy, how hard would that be to explain??  Haha) I was sent to Internal Medicine after my liver enzymes came back super high. I had an ultrasound and a CT scan of my abdomen and tons of blood draws before they figured it out. I have felt like poo poo since.  I hope he doesn't have that kind!  Not sure if I will end up with the CFS also, but hoping it goes away soon.  I feel morning sick all day long.  And, I can't take Tylenol or have any alcohol.  IT SUCKS.
