I'm not going down without a fight!

It is official - I have mono. Boo.

I am not happy about this, but I'm not going to let this ruin my plans. I have echinacea and vitamins and will drink gallons of water and get tons of rest in the upcoming days and weeks and will get better quickly.

Apparently I'm a freak as well, because I have only one of the symptoms of mono - I don't even have swollen lymph glands, which is supposed to be a must with mono. Like I said, freak. I'm looking at it as a sign that I have a kick-ass immune system that is going to have me up and on my feet in two weeks flat. That way I will be able to go to Haiti as planned.

I'm praying that that is the case. I have a follow-up test scheduled in two weeks and will have to make a decision then. Mono is not going to take me down and ruin my trip without a fight!
