Trouble in Paradise

We've got an ailing mother again.  I will have to take some time off of work today to help out at home.  Shan is in lots of pain and is feeling hurt all over.  This is similar to that mastitis scare we had a few weeks back.  We gave her lots of meds and now she is feeling somewhat better but we had a rough night.  Fortunately, Z calmed down enough at bedtime to give us some sleep.  I guess a day's worth of screaming will tucker anyone out.  For now, we will head to New Dawn later this afternoon and give Shan lots of rest and fluids and more medication.  She should be fine after some rest.
