Sick baby...

I just wanted to let everyone know why I have not been posting, and have you put Soley in your prayers. She has been very sick, and continues to get a little better each day, but the doctor said she would get worse before better. On Sunday morning, she woke up very ill, she appeared to have a very bad cold, and running a fever. So on Monday morning, I called the doctors office before they opened to take her in, and of course like always they are so nice, and I was able to bring her in before the office even opened to be seen! A huge shout out to East End Pediatrics, anyone who needs a pediatrician would be crazy to not go there. Any-whoo, after two hours of prodding and poking, swabbing and finger sticks, she has RSV, a respiratory bug that usually goes around daycares (not sure where Soley would have picked it up) but she did. Her blood count was also high so the doctor wanted to rule out a bacteria infection in her lungs so we then proceeded to the children's hospital here to get that taken care of. I am happy to say that it was all clear. So now we just use the nebulizer with her three times a day (they gave her an injection of something to help at the docs office). Hopefully this will not last too long, as this is hard on mommy and daddy too! She is not getting much sleep (not that different from the norm, but hard when you are sick) and she has been so fussy. poor girl just feels so bad. When she starts to get upset or hurts, she cries out MAMAMAMA and it's the cutest thing I have ever heard. Thanks in advance for all your prayers.

(this was a picture of Soley Monday morning on the way to the doctor, how sweet does she look. Poor girl!

Auntie Sam loves you Soley! Glad the Great Physician helped Mommy find a great physician. Praying for Soley to sleep, though God seems to be saying "wait" for the answer to that prayer.

Hopefully Soley is feeling MUCH better by now. It's never easy for the child or the parents when she is ill. So glad that you are very pleased with the doctors and the care they give. And yes, isn't it great to hear the word...MAMAMAMA!
