Day 435

    Katie is back in the hospital.  We took her to the clinic yesterday morning because her cough and breathing were so bad.  They took an x-ray and we were told it wasn't  pneumonia, just a bad case of RSV.  We were told not to worry unless she developed a fever - and then they sent us home.  Well...last night she developed a fever.  We spent the night in the ER.  Katie's heart rate is very elevated and her breathing laborious.
     They brought us to a room around 5 am.  Katie and I fell asleep.  When I woke up a couple of hours later, I immediately asked the nurse to check Katie's temperature.  Her temp was 104.5!  I had the nurses hopping, "I need ice packs, I need a wash cloth - she needs Tylenol and a drink!"  The doctors seem at a loss as to what to do for her.  Katie will be getting another x-ray this morning.  We could use prayers!  Please pass on the word...  We are glad for our family and friends.

  1. We'll be praying, so sorry. I hope she's better and you have her home really soon!
