about an hour after i climbed into bed yesterday i started running a fever... a HIGH fever, it was 102.5 for much of the day, in fact it started peaking about about 8pm, and i couldn't stand it anymore. I had to go take a cool shower to cool it down.  It did help and then then it broke about 10pm.  It isn't very often that I run a fever for that many hours. Normally I run a temp for 6-8 hours, but not 10 hours. 

Now today my lymph nodes are swollen all over me.  I wonder if it has to do with my rash.  Although I'm not breaking out anymore, but i am slowly healing up.  I'm just kind of wondering if it isn't all connected being I got so sick.  my hip is whoa mama... on the verge of pulling my hair out kind of pain, my back and joints and lymph nodes and muscles all are upset, but my hip... takes my breath away.  how am i going to survive?  

Plus poor EO had a massive headache last night.  When the meds finally kicked in, then he had stomach issues real bad. So he didn't make it to the meeting last night either. 

Steph has been so worn out.  She seldom sleeps very well.  And then she has trouble with taking meds, she gets immune to them really fast, including caffeine, it doesn't keep her awake anymore, and sleeping pills don't help her anymore.  she has been so sad lately.  just really discouraged.  Satan is beating her with discouragement because he knows it works on her, and i just can't seem to lift her spirits anymore.  she did have a couple days at the convention where she was really encouraged but, she needs more help and support than we can do on our own.  So i keep praying that Jehovah will comfort and encourage her.
