Q: Taken For Granted.

asked by: Eyes Wide Shut on January 7th, 2008

So, before Oni got sick I never realized how much I loved her and her personality!!

now that she's sick, and doped up on meds, all she does is lay in bed.

I'm sure her lil ribs/abs are sore from coughing for 7 days and she's just recooping.

But it makes me sooo sad that she's not being herself.

I look at pics of her and I get tears in my eyes because I miss my girl.

I guess I took her for granted when she wasn't sick. And now I feel so bad for her.

I just keep telling myself, "a couple more days, and she'll be back!".

It's just really hard to watch my vibrant, outgoing lil girl, just lay there.
She doesn't wanna eat, drink, nothing. (unless SHE'S ready. we can't offer anything...she'll refuse.)

Sorry, I just had to post this. I'm really sad about it.

It's hard for me to be happy about this new baby when my 1st baby is sick. Crying or Very sad

I know how you feel. I get like that every time the kids are ill. I think 'Oh I would give anything for them to be running around causing havoc again'

I know, it's hard. Cheyenne has had a pretty bad cold for a few days now and hasn't wanted to eat like usual and sleeps a lot more. I'll be so glad when she's back to her normal happy self again.

That is so sad. It was really hard for me to see Luke lethargic when he was in the hospital. I am very glad that he is all smiley again.

Thanks ladies!

It seems like RIGHT after I posted this she jumped up out of bed and has been her "old" self again!!

Of course, tomorrow, she'll prob regret trying to do so much!

We went out to eat and she scarfed down any/everything she could!!! Of course, Baron was EXTATIC. But I'm expecting her to be in bed all day again tomorrow!!

Let's keep our fingers crossed!!!
