Poor Andy!

So, we thought we were in the clear the other day. Andy was really well rested and he was able to go back to work. He is scheduled for grave yard this week and when he got home in the morning he was so pale he blended in with the white walls! I asked him what happened. He should not have gone back to work so soon. His job is so labor intensive that he had killed his progress. If you don't know, Andy is an underground coal miner. Have you ever stopped to think about where your energy comes from? Most of it is from coal and these guys work their butts off literally (I can say that since Andy has lost about 50 lbs. just from work alone) digging out energy to be burned. He was hanging cable which weighs about 50lbs. a foot over his head all night long in the depths of hell which sometimes reaches temps. of 130 degrees. He had lost 5 lbs. that night and I guess his body wasn't ready for that kind of over haul. We got him a blessing last night and his fever is down a little today but I don't know that he will be able to go back to work tonight either. He hasn't even moved. I have to say I love my husband so much. Ever since we got married he has worked so hard to provide for us. Given how young we were when we got married I have to say he has done such a good job. There isn't anything he wouldn't do for his family. I don't think I could work so hard through sickness. I had influenza last year when I was pregnant and I didn't even have it that bad since we caught it early but I was sure I was going to die! Poor Andy!
