Here is how the week actually went down
Friday: Went to pigeon forge and had a great afternoon.
Saturday: Woke up at 12:30am in severe pain. Walked the floors and tried to remain as quiet as possible (so I didn't wake up the sleeping members of my family) while crying and trying to figure out what to do next. I woke Allen up at 8:00am and informed him of what I thought was going on and we loaded up the members of our family and headed to the Urgent Care. At 10:00am I was diagnosed with kidney stones given pain meds and sent on my merry little way. We decided to head on back to Knoxville so I could attempt to pass the stones at home. At 5:00pm I had a fever of 104, in severe pain, and was not able to use the bathroom so off we went to the ER. After the ER medicated me and I was using the potty again I was sent home to pass the kidney stones and get to the urologist first thing Monday morning.
Sunday: I layed in the bed all day crying and wanting my Ma.
Monday: Went to the urologist my appointment was at 10:00am and I was finally able to leave at 4:45. My children (all 3 of them!) had a blast...NOT! It was then determined I had 3 kidney stones in various locations and a severe kidney infection. My instructions were to drink lots of fluids, get lots of rest, and try to pass the stones.
Tuesday: Watched Disney movies all day and slept, and drank fluids, and slept, and drank fluids, and strained my pee pee, and slept. And cried for my Ma.
Wednesday: Urologist calls to inform the the infection in my kidney is very serious and I would need IV anti-biodics to help clear it up. I hung up the phone, cancelled my Thursday plans and cried for my Ma.
Thursday: Ethan is still able to go the science museum (Thank you Kim!). I drop Ashley and one of her friends off to go have a birthday lunch and I head to the urologist to get my anti-biodics. The dinner at my house is cancelled and we are going out to dinner instead. There will not be one of my yummy homemade cakes but a store bought one instead. Luckily Ashley is easy going and is completely happy with our current plans...even though I feel like the worst mother ever. I haven't cried for Ma yet...but the night is still young
Friday: The only thing I know will happen is a visit with the urologist to get an update on the stones and infection...depending on what I find out will depend on our plans for the rest of the day and possibly the weekend.
Saturday: I have no clue. I have a feeling I will be crying for my Ma though.
What a week! Remind me to NEVER make plans again!
oh Becky, I hope you are feeling 100% SOON!
