When husbands get sick and dogs get needy...







I have officially had the experience of having to take off work to take care of someone else besides myself. Dan came home sick Thursday with a 103 temperature. I slept in the guest room to avoid any contact of germs. I got up every two hours to check his fever, which was anywhere from 101-103 all night. Then Friday I got up and got dressed, went to work to get stuff together, and get a sub. Dan needed me to drive him to the doctor. The doctor couldn't see him so off to the ER we went. They ended up giving him an IV to get fluids back in him. He was pretty empty. He slept most of the day. Today he felt better and his fever is finally got, but he is still weak. It will be a few more days until he is back to normal. And to top it off.....Junior (the dog) can't stand that Dan is in the house and not giving him attention! He is so sad and I guess I just can't replace Dan or the truck or the farm....

Nite!
