Jackson came down with a fever this morning, no other symptoms except general malaise. It's inconvenient because it is a long weekend, in which we had big plans to be with friends enjoying the hot and sunny weather from a swimming pool where the kids could practice their new swimming skills. It was going to be great fun and we are all disappointed in the change of plans.
But it is most inconvenient because Matthew is scheduled for surgery for Wednesday. Matthew can't get sick between now and then. To avoid Matthew catching the mystery ailment, Darren will be off to his folks house with Matthew while I hold down the fort with poor sick little Jackson and potentially sick (or at least germy) Alyssa. Not exactly how we envisioned our weekend, but it is what it is and we'll do whatever we have to do.
This is the second time Jackson has gotten sick right before a Matthew surgery. Two times isn't a lot, but out of 6 surgeries, that is 1/3rd of the time. It seems like a lot. Hopefully it will be short lived and we'll be able to be together very soon!
Our Blog
We originally started this blog (years ago) to keep track of the every day things in our lives that we didn't want to forget but knew that we would in time. As life got in the way, we posted less and less until March 2010 when Matthew's arrival rocked our world. Now we use this blog to let everyone know how Matthew is progressing and the big events going on at the Hoy House. We are so appreciative of everyone who has read our story and has thought and prayed for Matthew and for us.
