Yesterday was a very long day. I had been up all night with Hayden giving her meds trying to reduce her 102 degree fever. Nothing I did was working. I would give her something to drink and not even 30 seconds later she would puke it all back up. I was talking to my mom on the phone about what I could do to help her. I went to change her and noticed that she hadn't peed all night. My mom said to watch her. I laid her down to put her pajama pants back on and her eyes started rolling back in her head. My mom told me to take her in immediately. I rushed her over to the emergency room where they had to give her an IV. That was one of the hardest things I have had to do. Hold your baby as they are poking her and telling her it will be alright while the whole time she is crying for you. They staff at the hospital was wonderful with her. They had to take her to do a chest x-ray to check for pneumonia. After she was done they gave her a Popsicle. She loved it. Hannah even had one.
They wrapped her IV with a red bandage so she wouldn't have to look at it. It took up her whole hand.
She finally fell asleep which was good because she had such a long night.
Such a big bed for a such a little girl.
Finally around 2pm the doctor came in and said that she didn't have pneumonia or strep throat. The culprit was she had a terrible UTI. That was causing all of this. She had not complained about it hurting when she went to the bathroom. The only thing she complained about was her stomach hurting but I thought it was just the flu. I am so glad we took her in. By 2:30pm we were back home and all she wanted was to see her sister, Hannah.
She really scared us. We were so worried about her. We are so thankful that she is better.
