After a busy week for me of playing catch-up at work, Jasmine and I got out for a bike ride on Saturday. Her recovery has continued to be phenomenal and for that we are grateful and amazed. It hardly seems fair that on the cusp of complete recovery from mouth surgery she is hit with a terrible late summer cold. Our ride was a little noisier than usual as we traveled the 15 miles into town instead of our usual route which is heading further away and deeper into the forest. There was considerable traffic--thankfully there's a also a very wide shoulder--and Jasmine had a tough time getting her afternoon nap. She complained off and on and was duly rewarded with a trip to our local coffee shop and a pineapple smoothie. Maybe it was a bit much, for later that day and for the remainder of the weekend, she was out of sorts, sneezing, itchy nose and miserable. We had to cancel our plans to visit grandparents and slow our pace down on Sunday.
This morning we are off to meet with her surgeon for her post-op appointment.

We are SO glad to hear about J's miraculously fast recovery--no doubt, dedicated parents and plenty of attention helped.
Too bad about the cold but that is a cross all parents have to bear. Eventually J will be immune to many of the common cold virus and catches fewer and fewer.
Hope all goes well at the first visit to check her mouth. Give a hug to her for both of us.
