Please pray for the Harris Family...

Hello everyone! Thanks for checking in on us.

Today, I am asking for prayer. My gallblader surgery was a success, happening last Thursday. I took it very easy over the weekend with lots of help from my WONDERFUL parents, in-laws, family, friends, etc. I returned back to work today with a dr. appt. set-up for this afternoon because last night I notcied that one of my eyes was really glassy and pink...thinking, great...pink eye.

My appt. today was a little too much. I am still recovering, obviously, from surgery. I am sore and just taking it very slow. By the time I got to my appt. I just didn't feel that great. I just thought to myself...okay, I have overdone it for the day.

My appt. proved differently. I have conjunctivitis in both of my eyes which is really contagious by touch, an upper respiratory infection that is going down into my lungs, likely to end in bronchitis, fluid behind both of my ears, and a terrible sore throat and cough. But, NO STREP. That is the one positive out of the visit.

In all honestly, I probably should have stayed home and rested today, but I felt okay and didn't start feeling so rough until the end of the day. I don't have a temp, but he did prescribe some antibotics both by mouth and for my eye.

Maggie is returning to the dr. tomorrow for her ear check-up (since her double ear infection two weeks ago) but the dr. looked at her and noticed that she probably has conjunctivitis in her eyes as well.

Josh is doing okay. Just need to be praying for him also. With a sick wife, a some-what sick baby, and pulling a full work load...he is tired.

We have the best family and friends in the world. I can't thank you enough for the phone calls, food, etc. that you have provided.

We just really need your prayer right now...
I know the Lord will take care of us, just a little stormy right now.
