shelley pepper is sick

   Tue, December 16, 2008 - 10:46 AM
she is recovering from meningitis. she is still at the hospital but will be going home in a few days. please go visit her at the hospital, or email her or call her or visit her at her house when she gets home. she's not contagious unless you french kiss her and she's not really up for that right now anyway. ;P

recovering from being near death is horrible, but recovering alone is worse. she misses cole a lot but can't spend a lot of time with him right now and that's making her sad too. you can help by cheering her up!

email me if you need her contact info.


p.s. i took the above photo at cheeky's wedding.

Wishing Shelley a speedy recovery!
Meningitis!?! Scary stuff.
Glad she's on the mend.

Damn hospitals with all those germs.

I just sent her an email. She has been in my thoughts constantly since I heard the news. Thank you Z for getting the word out and for keeping us all in the loop.

That is really scary news!

I'm glad she is feeling better!

I spoke with her yesterday and she is a little bit frustrated because she wants to be recovering faster, but also expressed feeling very lucky and of course feeling loved by all the people visiting.

If you can go see her, please do - but if you aren't the hospitals type then try to visit her once she is back home. I am sure she will love the company while she is getting better.

I have been incredibly impressed by everyone's care, worry and support! I just found out that I will be able to go home tomorrow morning after finishing 2 more doses of antibiotics today. Part of the slow-going nature of my recovery has been due to the fact that I can't sleep! Hard to sleep when you're so exhausted, but not able to eat much and don't have enough energy to be moving around normally during the day, plus the bed is always moving and vibrating - ugh. Apparently it will probably be a couple of months before I feel like myself again and I'm really not sure when I'll be able to get back to work, but I am definitely looking forward to being a normal person again!
