Poor thing! I have a long history of experience with strep throat. I used to get it at least 2 times a year when I was in elementary school. If you can take penicillin & they give you the option, get a shot. I always started to feel better within 12 hours when I got a shot. I'll pray for a quick recovery!

I know how you feel! Get Penicillin a.s.a.p.! That stuff is wonderful!, and gargling with warm salt water makes your throat feel much better! Hope you get to feeling better soon!

Beth said...

thanks guys! I've had penicillin for 12 hours now and I'm already starting to feel a little better.

Oh HONEY! You are right that your girlies will not remember their corndog movie-fest. Just manage through - I'm praying for you!

Bless your sweet little heart! It's bad when your kids or husband is sick, but it's REALLY bad when you're the one! I'll be praying for you to fully recover, if for no other reason than your poor kids' diets! ;) You know I'm kidding! Get better soon!

I feel your pain! Big hugs *hug* Brandon and I have been sick this week, and just coming off of it. He had Strep, and I had a sinus unfection. Both diagnosed at the same time Monday.
Praying for you, Beth!! Dont feel bad about the movies, and the meals ... sometimes you have to do whatever it takes to get by.

I feel your pain, literally!
I am getting over strep; absolutely no fun at all!

Do you get the fever blisters that go along with it too? I guess a lot of people on Mom's side of the family are prone to getting them.

Oh, and the girls will probably remember the corn dog movie days as fond memories! :-)

Hope the drugs do their work SOON!
