Yup, it's official. Julia has mono. She has been pretty sick these past couple of weeks. In fact, looking back, it seems that she started feeling the extreme fatigue and achiness back in March, on Spring Break in California. But, then it really kicked in just before Prom. In fact, the day of prom she got up, felt awful, and went back to bed for the rest of the morning and early afternoon, and then got up with just enough time to get her hair done and get ready. She crashed afterwards and has been pretty sick ever since. I took her to the Dr. last week because I suspected mono. The Dr. concurred, but they had to wait until the beginning of this week to do the test to confirm it. So, we went back in yesterday and sure enough, she's got it.
She is doing her best to stay on top of things with school, but it is tough. She goes to certain classes on certain days and spends the rest of the time trying to catch up on missed work and resting. It is hard to balance it all out, and some teachers are more understanding than others. But, she's doing what she can. Keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

We're so sorry for this news Julia Gulia. Gabe spent this morning making you a picture out of stickers, and we popped it in the mail for you. I'm sure it's just the thing to help you get better soon :)
We love you!
Hey Julia, This is a bummer. Though at least you have an explanation now--there's nothing worse than feeling really bad for days and days and days and not knowing why.
Get well soon, and enjoy the resting if you can. Love, Sandra
