Life slapped me in the face.

Good morning! Thank you for all your support and feedback from my last post.  I had another post ready to go for yesterday but life got in the way.  I don't normally talk specifics about my personal life--maybe a dash here and there but this weekend life slapped me in the face.  I had to take my son to the emergency room.  He is fine now but it was a little scary. It turns out he has walking pneumonia and is now playing like a crazy man  so the medication is working. I was quite surprised when they admitted him into the hospital because I just thought I would bring him to just get checked out, get some medication and go home.  He had a high fever, and low oxygen levels so we stayed there. It was a heart wrenching experience and all I want to do is hug my kiddos.
Today I was supposed to take him to an ears, nose and throat specialist for other problems he has been having but I was lucky that the doctor came to us at the hospital. So on top of the pneumonia my little guy needs tubes (for his ears), along with the removal of his tonsils and atnoids (I don't think I spelled that right, sorry). That should happen in a few weeks. 
So if my posts fall short over the next few weeks you know why.
I hope to do some commenting today and check out the blogosphere to see what I missed. Don't forget go to Fiction Groupie for the open critique.  I know I have almost 100 followers so don't forget to check back for a contest. :)
I plan on catching up on revisions and critiques over the week and weekend.

Hug the ones you love folks --take the time to show it.

Have a great day! Happy writing!
