Update

Hi there - Recovery from mono is going slow. Been living in my PJ's and oversized sweatshirts. The throat soreness is pretty much gone except when I talk for long periods of time or cough. The glands in my neck have shrunk. My main concern now is fatigue and this cough which I can't seem to get rid of. Did research on herbs, vitamins etc. I consulted with a pharmacist on some of my research and have a plan for which ones to take. Lots of rest and liquids are the main treatment. He also said that the more rest you get at the front end of this viris will speed up the recovery. I have been going crazy in my head - wanting to do things with my body not cooperating. Crocheting has been a nice distraction. I have to admit that my spirits are pretty low and my patience is growing thin. I want to be back on the playdate circuit and miss my mornings at the gym and spending quality time with Alan.

In other news: Congrats to Louis and his new job.....and we are awaiting the arrival any day now of Melanie's baby!!!!
