We got home from camping around 6:30pm. We showered and packed for the Hospital. We got to the Hospital around 8pm her temp was 104.9 and I explained her history of UTI's. They drew blood, got a urine sample and started an IV. She was admitted with a Kidney infection a short time later and in her room around 2am. They started the antibiotics right away but it took two and a half days for her fevers to finally go down. The Dr wanted her to be fever free for 24 hours before he would release her to go home. On the day before we were going to go home I noticed her little hand turning RED under the tape near her IV site. By the time the RN was concerned about it (24hours later) she had developed some kind of infection on her hand that caused blistering :( We ended up having to stay 2 more days and had to start an additional antibiotic for her hand. We were there a total of 6days and 5 nights. She has a procedure this week to see if we can figure out why she keeps getting these dang uti's.
I don't have pictures of her the first few days we were there because She was so sick and didn't want me to put her down long enough for me to even think about the camera. But here are a few pictures of her the last few days.
This is a picture I took on Friday on the way home from camping. Can't you tell she isn't feeling well. Her temp was aprox 104+ :( poor baby.
Her Best Cousin Keala came to visit her several times, They were so cute and always happy to see each other!
playing in the Jail crib ;)
Michelle gave me a break so I could shower. THANK YOU!!!!! You're awesome!
My Cousins wife Cristy (who's son was just a few rooms down form us) Made this adorable hat for her. She loved it!
Since she couldn't get on the floor to crawl (I mean scoot) around I used the window to entertain her.
Her poor hand :(
We had lots of visitors =) I especially liked these ones!!
Breakfast on the last day of her stay!
We are very blessed to have such wonderful friends and family. Thank you everyone for your prayers and thoughts and visits and phone calls and gifts and love etc... We have a lot to be thankful for!!!
