Invasion of the Body Snatchers

What happened to my usually cooperative, healthy body?  In the last 3 weeks, I have been hit with the following:

1.) 24 hour stomach bug causing uncontrollable vomiting.  Fun and gross right?

2.) Flu - which by the way, I can't remember ever having and it sucks.  I literally could not get out of my bed one day.  I called Brad crying because I didn't know how I was going to bring Drew to Mimi's house that day.  After some phone calls, Brad got it taken care of, and I stayed in bed from morning until night.  That was two days ago, and while I feel a little better, I am still not 100%.  Does anyone get the flu shot?  I am definitely considering it now because I can't afford to lose this many days of my life.

3.) H.Pylori www.mayoclinic.com/health/h-pylori/DS00958- When I had the endoscopy done, they also did a biopsy.  Turns out I have a bacteria in my stomach that is causing me to feel so bad and have all of these acid issues.  It is very common and treatable with strong antibiotics.  I told the nurse that I was kind of glad they found something because I have been on Nexium for a few weeks now and it had not been working.  I thought I would be feeling much better by now.  Check out what I have to take to make it better........




4 pills in the a.m. 4 pills in the p.m. for 14 days.  Awesome.

Do you think the universe is trying to tell me something?
Me and Drew to tell you the truth.  I think some big changes need to be made around here and I am working on what that may be.  More to come soon.........

On a positive note, I have discovered that Flickr www.flickr.com/photos/jackieduv/ lets you upload videos.  Please check out this awesome video on my site to experience my greatest accomplishment as a parent so far.  You may think I am crazy, but at least you will smile :)
