AuburnChick's Adventures

Chicky went back to the doctor today…for a follow-up appointment…and to hear the results from the blood work she had done on Monday.

Guess what she has?

Not mono.

Not Lyme Disease.

The Strep culture is still out, but the doctor doesn’t think she has that either based on her other blood component levels.

Basically, she had a really nasty viral infection.

Go figure.

Chicky has now been given the green light to stop taking the antibiotic, which means that we now have three of them sitting in the cabinet.

When we got in the car, I teasingly told Chicky that I believed she had faked the entire illness in her desire to get attention.

She’s like that, you know.

I further reasoned that she also needed a new reason to grump at me, and she probably knew her actions would be forgivable because she was “sick.”

She laughed as I shared my revelations with her.

Then she grumped at me about…well…who knows exactly.  All I can remember is that she has fussed non-stop since we left the place.

My Chicky is back.

I could not be happier.

By the way, we want to thank everyone who prayed for her during the course of the week.  This was the sickest I’d seen Chicky since she was a baby.  Her symptoms were quite frightening as well.

The Bible promises that there is power in numbers, and your prayers certainly were heard.

Thank you all!!
