ill be up all nite...

well its 1222am on tuesday now..i stayed down stairs to keep an eye on jon and get some emailing done..he all of a sudden started coughing and needing my help..he doesnt really cough at all..so i have to push on his diaphragm a certain way to help him cough..it was kind of freaking me out! so now he coughs it up and it gets back down..im not sure if he's congested all of a sudden or what?? so it looks like ill be up all nite to make sure he can keep breathing and not choke on coughing or lose air doing it..i REALLLLY dont want him getting pnemonia or anything like that!!!!
well after an hour i decided to call our home teacher sheldon mcgee to give jon a blessing..he was starting to make me nervous and i just didnt feel good about things..he quickly came over..
its now 1am..ill stay up a little longer to see if he falls asleep and is okay..
he was telling sheldon that he'll wake up, not able to breathe well and start to get all tingly like he's going to pass out..AHHH this is so hard!! im just grateful sheldon is here and were able to call and have Heavenly Fathers help- especially in times such as these..

okay well its 145am..jons been quietly asleep for about 45 minutes..i think i'll go to bed now..ill set the baby monitor up just in case..i had called robert after i called sheldon to let him know what was going on with jon..he was so sweet- he called at 130am saying he JUST couldnt sleep and wanted to make sure he was okay..he was worried he woke him back up- but i had hid the phone in the bathroom..so he didnt wake up YA!
well off to try to get some sleep..GRATEFUL amanda is coming tomorrow morning!!

That would make it so hard to sleep.. Thank goodness for good friends and good hometeachers. It really seems like your family is being watched over. I am glad you have found Amanda, I sure hope she keeps showing up and being such a good help.
Your girls sound like great little workers.. My girls could learn from them.. or maybe I could learn from you that they are capable of doing more. I think it builds them up to have that ability and the responsibilty to help out..
I was reading Pres. Monson's article in the Aug. Ensign, when he was talking about trials, and Job, I just thought of you and your family... Keep hanging on- you guys are doing great! You are going to make it! Lauralee
