Doctor, Doctor

Did more blood work yesterday. The nurse called me this morning and said I am doing well. My billirubin is down to 2.6. So, we are getting there. For those of you who I haven't told, normal billirubin levels should be at 2.2. Liver failure is in the 20's and the highest I got was 12.7, so I was halfway there! CRAZY! All from Mono--stupid virus! But, things are looking up. I still have to get my blood drawn every week until the doctor feels okay about releasing me into the wild, but if I am getting better, then prick me all you want--well, okay maybe not all you want!

So, on Easter Sunday, Parker was talking to his sister on the phone and was telling her (I was eavesdropping--not really because he knew I was in the room with him!) how one day he was driving and he had to pull over because he started crying about me being sick. I didn't know he was that concerned--we were all concerned, but he always had on the strong, "You'll get better" attitude. I guess trying to make it easier for me. I just thought that story was sweet.

I easedrop all the time. That's when I know what Jeff really thinks. Sure, he'll tell me stuff, but if he's telling someone else, then I know he's serious.
