We decided a few weeks ago to put our house on the market. We knew it was time to find a house that had the option of putting Ben's room on the first floor to avoid carrying him and his supplies up and down the steps. Our current house just wouldn't accommodate that and putting on an addition wasn't something we wanted to do. So we listed our house and hoped it would sell, but expected it to take a while due to the market and time of year. When it sold in 11 days, needless to say we were shocked and thrilled! That meant we had to get moving on finding something for us...and we had pretty specific needs because of Ben and the fact that we weren't willing to change school districts. But, with the help of our wonderful Realtor, we found a house! And, October 28 we will be moving-not a lot of time, but the people who bought ours want in ASAP.
Then, this past week Ben became pretty sick with some kind of intestinal bug. He is really struggling to stay hydrated even on straight Pedialyte. He had something Monday and Tuesday, got better on Wednesday then got super duper sick on Thursday. He isn't any better today. We are trying an anti-nausea med this morning prescribed by his doctor to help him keep the clear liquids down. If that doesn't help, we will have no choice but to admit him for IV fluids. Praying it helps and he can start to recover. He is just so weak and out of it, it breaks my heart that I can't do anything to help.
