Last weekend I came home from work to a sick kid with a really high fever. Couldn't figure out what was going on and She wouldn't eat, wouldn't sleep, was totally dead on the couch. Tuesday came around and just when we thought we she was better, we noticed her face started swelling and fever was creeping up again. We went straight to the children's hospital and they took us in right away. Ottavia's glands were so swollen that they were worried about her airway..so scary. After some medication, 2 licks of a popsicle, a urine sample and tired grumpy girl, we got released that evening with a high dose of medication. She only started eating on sunday. Its so stressfull when you kid doesn't eat, I get so angry and frustrated it makes me crazy but all in all she had fun in Regina with the cousins..thats another blog...
Here is my sweet girl with her sou sou (so bad but she was sick)
So Just when we thought things were better, on our drive home I said to Tino, its freezing in this Van can you turn up the heat?? he's like..its 27 degrees in here. I had no appetite, and my throat started to hurt. By 8pm I had a full blown fever, my hair hurt, I felt like CRAP. Thank god Ottavia went to the day home, I went to the dr. and slept the entire day away. Last night was rough as well, if I wasn't medicated fever would come and back and I could harldy swallow..its moved to my chest now, and I'll I've done is slept...Now I know why My kid didn't eat for so long. I'm hoping tomorrow is better. Its a good thing this happened now before we left for holidays, but I have so much to including work that I don't have time for this...I thought wonder women didn't get sick!!
Aw Deena! What a rough week! I hope you;re all feeling so much better.
