Jena Still Sick

So again it has impacted our week a bit.  While we could leave her for short amount of time, we mostly tried to alternate being with her based on the work that we needed to do at the library.  Gary is constantly needed everywhere it seems while my tasks are almost easier to do at home without interruptions. We managed to get through the week okay, but I ended up with a migraine on Friday--likely due to checking on Jena frequently during the night when she was coughing, etc.

Jena continued to have this very bad cold and developed some GI stuff as well.  We took her to the doctor on Wednesday and she was negative for COVID, the flu, and strep.  So we are mostly waiting it out.  She had to go on a clear diet for 24 hours and then a liquid diet for another 24 hours to give her GI track some rest and that seemed to help.  Friday was the first day we felt she was really starting to get better and that has continued through the weekend so far.  However, she still has a cough and raspy throat.  Hopefully she will be good to go by Tuesday.  She has been a good sport, but she is bored of movies and being stuck at home.

My view of Tuesday's devotional from home
Sister Lee has been leading since Jena was gone.
How great is that--she is very musical, but
she is just learning English but she is still
willing to help us.
