Alicia In The Hospital

Well on September 23rd Alicia came down with a fever after having a severe pain in the neck....hmm tempting play on words here...nah...too easy. We immediately thought of the possibility of Menengitis. Julie took her in and they did all kind of tests on her. She thought she was going to die. They did multiple blood samples, urine samples, gave her an I.V., MRI and an ultrasound, along with all the normal stuff. When Julie told her that she would have an I.V. when she had kids she vowed to never give birth...hmm...wonder if that will change...

Oh Well. After a 6 hour visit they thought she might have a form of hepatitis. We took her the next day for a follow up visit with her doctor. They determined that it was not actually hepatitis, but she does have a high level of enzymes in her liver and her spleen is inflamed. They are just calling it a liver infection.

She will have a follow up appointment this Monday to re-check the enzymes. We will wish her luck.

Powder Puff

Alicia Playing FOOTBALL!!!

Yes Alicia's school had the Powder Puff Football game. Alicia was on the Junior Team. It was Junior Girls face off with Senior Girls.
The Referees were, of course, Senior Boys. The Juniors ran a hand-off all the way for a touch down. The referees called it back for no apparent reason and gave them a 10-yard penalty to boot. So what happens next play??? The Juniors run another hand-off for a touch down. Without wanting to look too obvious, the referees let it stand and reluctantly call the touchdown.

The Seniors drop the ball right in front of the ref. and pick it up

again and throw it. Ooops. Where was the call?? Oh well..I'm sure it must not of hit the ground. So why is that senior running across the line of scrimage before the snap? What no call?? Well maybe they just didn't see her. The calls were so one sided it was hilarious. The Junior team wins the game but most of their touchdowns were not counted. So the "official" final is 24-18 in favor of the Seniors.

This was the half-time entertainment. The football players, and others, dressed up like the girls and danced to "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun." Okay even though this was a little disturbing, it was somewhat amusing.
