Today is a hard day. One of my dear cousins is in the hospital suffering from double pnemonia. She's currently on a ventilator in order to give her some much needed rest. I didn't realize until my cousin Tracy told me, but essentially when they put you on a ventilator they have to put you in a medically induced coma. Maybe this just sounds worse than it really is--basically, she's just sleeping--but it's terrifying to have someone you love hover in such a dangerous place.
Sarah's sickness started about two weeks ago when she got the H1N1 virus. This is so crazy to me. When I was in England everyone kept asking us about the swine flu and every time they did I would look at them like they were crazy. I think we even laughed about it like they were just overreacting about a flu, which yes, made people very sick, but still, it was just a flu.
I feel foolish now for this careless attitude.
Today we're fasting for Sarah and praying our hearts out for her recovery. She's a beloved member of our family and we love her so much.
If you can, please remember Sarah and her little family in your prayers.

So sorry to hear this. They are in my prayers.
I'm hoping that there is good news since this was posted a few days ago.
*prayer*
