ER

Over the past four weeks we have been in and out of the Dr's office three times over the same illness and I can not tell you how frustrating it has been. Grace has been fighting a staph infection and according to Taylor medical Jared also had it. After Jared finished his antibiotics he was not better, he was actually a little worse. After we had Thanksgiving with family we decided to make the decision to take him to the ER. These issues had gone on long enough and we weren't sure if he would be allowed back to school on Monday.
His first ER visit and as you can see he was thrilled to be there. He was even more thrilled to find out it was not a staph infection but that he had a small cyst that needed to be removed. The cyst it is being analyzed but the doctors do not feel it's anything to be worried about.
Since we were there we might as well have her looked at since we were still fighting her infection for six weeks. Yes, something that was supposed to be gone in one week we are still fighting it six weeks later.
Can you say pathetic? She was milking it for all it was worth.
 
The doctor said her leg was healing fine and the infection was gone! Praise Jesus! This was music to my ears! I don't know if you have ever dealt with a staph infection but it is very painful, and VERY disgusting draining it every night. Yuck. 
 
So, I am happy to report that the Cornett family is going to survive and is finally on the mend. :)
