Emily kicked the stomach flu in about 2 hours, she spent the rest of the day running around in her wig, playing "Camp Rock". She also helped Tracy and Grannie do a little cleaning up of the house. I am still in bed with a 100 degree fever. I think that really speaks to how healthy Emily really is, besides the obvious. She has had multiple colds and flus in chemo, and every time it's a non issue. When we started Chemo we were so worried she would get sick, and we still are, but really amazed by her ability to bounce back, from pretty much anything.

Haley ended up getting it too. When I called my Mom to give her an update, she had the flu also. Out of everyone effected, only Emily is back to %100. Wow.

Now it's looking like we will resume tomorrow, we won't know for sure until tomorrow when we call the APU to see if they can fit her LP in and if they have any beds on 1 North.

I'm back in town and getting caught up with things, including catching up on Emily's blog while the rest of the family sleeps.

It's wonderful to hear how strong Emily is. Funny how all the Peppers are feeling woozy but Em, as though a stomach flu is a snap for her to get through--what a girl you've got there! I hope you guys will get to splurge on a nice little getaway soon. You are all an inspiration to me.

sending warm thoughts,
Kim

Hi guys-
We had that flu early last week and had two other friends had it the week before that (but we didn't get it from them) and our Dr. said in winter time it is cold /flu that "goes around" and in the summer months it is stomache flu's that are going around! Glad to hear you all recovered as quickly as we did! Take care - Jessica
