CHRISTINE IS STILL TRYING TO GET OVER HER PNEUMONIA

It is taking much longer than I thought it would for Christine to get over her pneumonia. She left the hospital November 6th. The doctors did say that it could take up to two months for her to be back to her old self. She's fine one day and the next she's coughing and sounds horrible. In one of my posts about the year 1906, pneumonia and influenza (the flu) were the number one causes of death. Even with medication and technology Christine had a tough time getting well in the hospital. If we had lived one hundred years ago she would not have made it. She is getting another x-ray today and I'm praying her lungs will be clear. We got quite a bit of snow yesterday. I'll take a picture of our snowman when he's finished. Right now he is one large snow ball. Everyone have a good day!

I finally was able to get signed into your "invitation only" account. There was an "issue" with google. I emailed them 3 times, and they finally figured it out, and were able to "fix" the problem. So.... yay! I'm in! So sorry to hear Christine is still not feeling 100%.... good luck today! Give her a hug for me!
