Copays are our friend
Peyton has been very sick this weekend. Friday she started to get a temperature and runny nose. SHe sounded like she might lose her voice. When I put her to bed I gave her Motrin and within 1 1/2 hours she was spiked at 105.1. I could not even give her tylenol yet to piggyback. We were able to get it down with the bath to 104. She has had a horrible cough and runny nose. Took her to urgent care on Saturday because temperature was between 105 and 107. Again immediately gave a her bath to bring it down and went to the doctor. He gave her a presription and said if she gets worse to take her to the hospital. Then we get home and she starts puking everywhere for about 3 hours. She then was able to finally go to sleep and again woke up with a high fever. We just kept a close eye on her yesterday and now this morning are getting ready to take her back to be seen first thing. I feel horrible that I cannot do anything to help her but comfort her. The doctor told us to keep her seperated from her sister because it is dangerous for the baby to get this. It has been very hard for her to not be with the baby and when I am feeding the baby she has to stay with Dad on the other side of the room. That just kills her. Children always want their moms when they are really sick. Hope todays doctor visit has a good outcome with higher hopes.
