Lots of Snuggle Time

Poor Calleigh has had a rough week. It started one week ago. She had a fever for 5 days and was having tylenol every 4 hours to keep it down. Other than the fever she had no other symptoms so I thought she could be teething. Then on Wednesday she had cold symptoms and still does. She has wanted to be held all week & not set down. I finally took her to emerg yesterday morning. While we were in the waiting room, I kept thinking, 'this is a waste of time. She is fine'. She was acting more like herself until---------the Dr came to check her or shortly before. She was screaming her head off, literally. She was pulling my hair, scratching & slapping my face & saying, "ou-ee, ou-ee". The Dr checked her ears, chest, throat, and tummy then did a urine sample. Everything seems fine except a bit of a reddened throat. By the time we were done with the Dr, I was bawling. I went over to work & told them I wouldn't be at work. Today I was able to get the 1st 4 hours off to stay home with Calleigh. I am going to keep the kids away from Tina's until April - that way both our kids & their's can get healthy again, I hope. I think they keep passing it back & forth.
