back to square one
Anika is sick again.
She got a sinus infection and they think she might have urinary track infection.
Those don't seem like major things, but her immune system is gone from all the medication she had to take for the HSP.
When kids with HSP get sick it can bring back their rash and their previous HSP symtoms.
My mom said it might not happen though since she's also taking steroids to stay strong.
That little girl is a fighter though, she'll be fine, I can feel it.
Being in Halifax leaves me out of the loop.
My cousin Amy had a baby a month ago but the baby is also in the hospital.
I just realized I forgot to ask my mom if it was a boy or a girl.
My mind is going a mile a minute in every direction.
The kids in my family are not healthy babies.
The one person I want a hug from isn't talking to me at the moment.

The baby's a boy, Lindsay!
Mary Lou sent me an e-mail, she spelled her name as "Mikael". It's not Micheal I was told, don't pronounce it the "english" way.
She said she was coming down for Easter / Mikael's Baptism. She will move down here again in the fall.
That is all.
Who is that person you need a hug from, and why isn't that person talking to you?
Hmmm . . . Probably, but perhaps things are more complex than that? Anyway, Lindsay, I hope Anika is feeling better soon. I hate that helpless feeling in the face of a child's suffering; it's especially hard when it involves someone you love. How old is Anika? I've heard that HSP symptoms tend to recede as kids approach puberty. I hope that's the way it goes for her. In the meantime, it's a rough go. She's got an awesome big sister in her corner . . .
She's 7.
Just watched Eight Below with her at the theatre, it's her March Break and she can't really do much since she's got a cough/cold now, bah!!
So Justin's my brother and answered the how old she is question. Eddo over there is my roommate and the person I wanted a hug from. But we made up and danced to Copa Cabana.
I'm going home in a few weeks, hopefully without my mother finding out. SURPRISE! I think my friend Alex is going to come along for the journey too.
Hey, you know she checks your BLOG, she will find out now, heh. I do believe she looks at the comments!
