Emily's had a hard couple of days. She's been running a high fever for 4 days. We're praying it breaks tonight. It is absolutely heartbreaking to see her not feeling well.
She usually loves her bath, but she's had a few too many lukewarm baths to try to get her temp down...
Last night, after 3 days of high fevers, her temp dropped to 95.4. We called the doctor on call and she suggested that we watch it for the next hour and if it didn't go back up to take her to the ER. We ended up taking her to the ER last night at 2:30. They checked her out and sent us home.
This afternoon her temp headed back up, but tonight we were happy to see that Emily felt good enough to help with the laundry by pulling it all on the floor. We probably would have stopped her if she hadn't been sick for several days, but instead we just smiled at her and took her picture.:)
oh steph!

Steph-I'm pretty sure I saw you on Wed afternoon....no she wasn't sick yet. On Wed night she started running a low fever of like 100.5. Thanks so much for praying.
ReplyDeleteShannon - Well her fever actually just keeps dropping at night and then going back up during the day. It's CRAZY!! Her temp dropped down to 95.2 again last night, but now its back up to normal for the moment. We're praying it stays normal today.
Steph- I am so sorry she is still not feeling well. Her pictures are so pitiful! We are praying for her.
