Just a little update on how Mark is feeling:
On Friday afternoon the MD put Mark on 24 hour rest- basically take it easy and stay home from work. Let his body get some recovery time in. If not for that- Mark works 7 days a week and who knows how long he could have done that with whatever sickness he has. His plan was to sleep a lot and drink a lot of water since the doctor said it was likely dehydration that was causing all the symptoms.
I talked with Mark this morning. The headaches are gone, the stomach aches have subsided, and in general he feels fine. There is one exception though- he still has diarrhea. Lovely, I know. He's been back to the MD today since his symptoms all haven't subsided and they changed their original diagnosis of dehydration to a gastro-intestinal bug of some sort. Time is the only cure- let his body keep pushing it out of his system. Until then, Mark states that his normal walk to work is exhausting. By the time he gets to work he is so tired- which never bothered him before.
Here's hoping his body lets him bounce back to his 100% soon!
Love

Operation Enduring Freedom
On a warm night in June, at 1AM I dropped Mark off at Fort Lewis. That was our final good bye and though it was filled with tears and was very difficult, we made it. His deployment to Afghanistan will be about a year in length. On the blog, I'll post e-mail updates from him as I hear from him to keep everyone up to date on all the information I receive. Thank you for all of the love and support through this process. I am so grateful.
