An Addie story

Wished I had taken a picture, but I didn't have my camera...darn. Poor little thing was vomiting starting at 5 Am and still doing it at 12:30, plus she was running a pretty high fever. She couldn't keep any liquids down, when she would take a drink, she would throw it up. Finally Lacey decided to take her to Urgent Care and I came down to babysit little Tristan and Caleb. She spent a couple hours at the Urgent Care and they told her to go to the hospital as Addie was very dehydrated and needed an IV to get fluids into her! So more hours were spent in the Emergency room at the hospital. She was running a fever of 103.8 and was just like a limp rag doll. She didn't even flinch with the IV going into her arm, she just laid on her Mommy's shoulder and slept.

Finally at 6 PM she was released from the hospital and her temperature was down to 101. She is still feeling the results of that day...cranky, moody, tired, sore. Needing lots of TLC! And on top of all this, Aaron was on a Men's Retreat! So Lacey was trying to handle all this by herself! Fortunately, her mother in law was in town and staying with her, so she had help with both Tristan and little Addie. And I brought Tristan to the hospital when he was needing to be fed! Thank goodness for GRANDMA'S!!
