This and That

It was a long weekend for Bre, she couldn't go outside. She is fascinated by the big, deep hole in the front yard that has raw sewage leaking into it. Sorry but the last thing I felt like doing was pulling her out of there and cleaning the mess that such a situation would have left her in. The septic tank guys are suppose to come first thing this morning and pump it out. Well my morning is well under way and I am still waiting so we will see.
I am very happy, no thrilled, to report that I am feeling much better. During my last visit to the neuro in St. Louis he put me on some medication called Topamax for the nerve pain and, knock on wood it is working. I have been pain free for days. I may still get the occasional twinge or shock of pain but nothing compared to before. My muscles are also no longer cramping. Slowly but surely I am starting to feel more like myself again. I haven't had a pain pill in well over a week. Thank you dear Lord!
Poor Marcus is only getting worse though. I don't know what to do. He has been on antibiotics since Thursday night and he is no better at all. His stomach is still hurting and now he has some sort of weird 'cut' in his mouth. He has barely eaten or drunk anything for days so I know he did not swallow anything to hurt himself so what in the world could it be? His mouth is also getting full of fever blisters, yes the Inside of his mouth.
He has missed so much school but what can I do? If he is sick then he is sick. I wish he was the one being home schooled instead on Dylan sometimes but he has way to far to go in school and would require too much supervision and help. I am scared I just couldn't handle it. Dylan on the other hand was about finished with school. Anyway I guess I will take Marcus back to the doctor today and see what he says.
