OH...I feel so bad for you! Poor baby! I wish I was there to make you a nice big bowl of beef broth. YUM
It really stinks to be sick and for 7 days...what a bummer. I almost poked myself in the eye to feel some sick symptoms until I read you went to the beach for some fresh air. Then I decided the eye could stay.
Love you and am so sorry your not felling well.
Keep up on the vit C...and beach going.

Wow - that just SUCKS! I'm so sorry. But, I agree with Ren - I felt really bad until I read you went to the beach to get some fresh air. Still fell bad, but the beach may be worth the trade - maybe not! I love & miss you tons!!
