please pray for us
Hey everyone sorry i haven't been on.. i have been in the hospital for the last three days, and it looks like we will be here for another two at least... my wife contacted a virus from an organic cow farn in our area wheb we went to cow pick up a couple milk cows. For eight days she had been puking and had severe diarrhea. She had not been ablr to eat or keep in fluids.
She is making progress but its slow. Please pray for us. Eli is staying with my parents. But it is very hard to be away from him Also she may lose her breast milk. We will be reporting the farm and seeking compensation from them.

Stewart It is cryptosporidium.
It is a very nasty parasite! Forewarning to everyone. If you handle cows with Scours, make sure to thoughly disinfect youself. This bug can only come from cows poop in one way or another!
Thank you all for your prayers

Wow Micah.......I just saw this. I'm sorry for what your wife and you are going through. Prayers and good thoughts coming your way my friend. Here's hoping she makes a speedy and full recovery and you're both home to your son soon.
