An Update

 

First of all I want to thank you all for your prayers. I think on Monday after I posted the little sleep Ron was able to get came after the prayers were being lifted up. I know you prayed for me, as such a spirit of calmness continues to wash over me.  He continues to improve. This is such uncharted territory for us. I have done searches and read and while I can find symptoms, nothing says how long these things last or what else happens.

 His muscles continue spasm and he has involuntary jerks of his feet and hands. At least the legs have stopped. The toxins settled into his joints. Yesterday, he broke out in the worse case of hives I have ever seen, every place the joints had ached over the last three days. I think the hives are a good sign as the poison is leaving his body.  He sleeps each day a bit better. The sweat is continuing to abate. We have only made a few Spiderman jokes.

His hands have finally returned to normal warmth. I know that each day something new happens. He said yesterday that now he just feels like he has the worst flu he has ever had in his life. Which is a improvement over feeling he could die. I find I am so thankful for tiny things. I woke up this morning and listened to him breathe as he slept. I am thankful, when I make him laugh and hear him chuckling. I am thankful he is eating.
I am so thankful for warm hands. He sleeps best when he can hear me going about a normal routine. The sound of the washer and dryer, the sound of the dsihwasher. The sound of my keys typing on my keyboard.
Things like this narrow my vision, and blessing comes in the smallest things.

I just want to say, thank you, and when Ron was very sick on Monday, he would read your comments and they helped him so very much. Just to know he was being prayed for, gave him strength.
I of course, have always known, I have the most wonderful friends in the whole world.
It is one day at a time.
Thank you so much for your kind words and your prayers.
