Dear Bear,
I wish you were feeling better.
I guess that it takes as long as it takes.
Can you rest more? Stop most of your activities and stay in bed or on the couch?
Can you come home early each day this week and go right to bed?
You family will support you. They sound like a good bunch.

Why do we wait it out when we could call the dr? I don't know.

Get well.
Mari
