Last week on Wednesday and Thursday, I finally started to feel better. My ballet teacher pulled me aside to say\u00a0<em>you have lost weight, dear, please rest\u00a0<\/em>and I assured her I would, I have been, and will. Friday morning I woke up and realized it was all worse, I felt like death warmed over. Andrew, newly returned from a three-day trip, took over and for the next two days I slept more than I was awake &#8212; waking up only to drink hot water and homemade chicken noodle soup and change the water in the vaporizer. There was definitely a secondary infection going on, but my doctor&#8217;s office was closed for the weekend. And then, on Sunday morning, after sleeping a solid 12 hours straight, I woke up better.
