Ok, had to reformat, testing to see if this works and also, I wanted to
apologize for not being around, I was in the hospital for four days and
they tested me for TB.  Apparently the way the x-rays looked made them
suspicious.  They admitted me and ran loads of tests. Ruled out TB,
thankfully.  I have pneumonia and they also checked my heart with an
ekg and echo, so at least I know my heart is super strong.

Hey you! No need to apologize, especially given the reason...

I hope the pneumonia clears up soon, it can be a PITA, as I know from
personal experience.

Thank you.  Tell me about it.  The good news is I gave up smoking.
I've not had a cigarette since friday.  I don't miss it.  The last time
I gave it up I hadn't smoked in 12 years.  So, I'm going to go back to
being a non-smoker.  I didn't get sick as much! ;)

Yikes!  I hope you're feeling better soon and I'm glad it's not TB!

I didn't see the original, but the follow up from Nan made it. Oh Froggy I
am sorry you have been so ill. I have a sister that went through TB after
getting it working a homeless shelter. It was no fun. But neither is
pneumonia. I hope you are feeling very much better SOON.

Thanks Cindi.  How is your sister now?  Any side effects from it?  I
know I was more worried about transmitting it to my son rather than
worrying about me getting better.  In fact, this weekend was the
hardest thing I had to go through,  I would NOT let Tadpole come to the
hospital (I was in isolation anyway) and the fact that he would cry on
the phone because I wasn't home.  The hardest thing was to not let him
near me.  I was doing it for his safety but it was the hardest thing
for me.

She is good now. This has been several years ago. Isolation is always a
nightmare. I always hate ICU when the kidlets can't come to see me. I always
end up in ICU when the kids have colds and so they can't come in.

I am glad you are back  home safe and sound And that Tadpole has his
precious Mama back if only a few days apart it seems like FOREVER I am sure.

Thanks Nan.  So am I.  I was absolutely terrified this weekend.  It
wasn't so much about me, but if I had TB then I was around Tadpole and
the thought of him having TB scared me the most.  Thank God it wasn't.
I would never forgive myself if he had gotten it.
