I was just commenting the other day on how lucky we were that none of us have been too sick yet this year. Jadyn's had little colds every now and then, but nothing too bad. Well, last night I was vomiting all night and had the worst headache and fever. I don't know if I had food poisoning, or what, because when I woke up this morning I felt better. I just went to give Jadyn a bath a little while ago, and when I picked her up she felt SO hot. I took her temp under her arm, and it was 103.5. She's been needing constant suctioning, which isn't too unusual for her, but it's been really dark yellow. She's been coughing a bit more, and just doesn't seem to be feeling the greatest. She's just really fussy. I gave her some Tylenol, and I gave her a lukewarm bath in hopes that would make her fever go down, and it is down somewhat but she's still really warm. So, I really hope this doesn't get too bad, but it'd be a miracle if we made it through her first winter with nothing too serious... I hope you all stay as healthy as possible! It seems EVERYONE is sick.

Sorry to hear about her fever! Zachary had a little cold a few weeks ago and it could have been bad if we hadnt gotten him on antibiotics right away. Think maybe you should get her to see a dr and get them started? Just an idea. I know with the flu stuff these days, I would get on it quick. But mine's a little differ since he's on the vent. I hope she feels better soon and I hope I didnt upset you mentioning the dr and meds!!!

I hope Jayden is better soon. Grace has had cold after cold since starting pre-school. I just hate the feeling of "here we go again". I think it is worth sending a sample of Jaydn's secretions to be tested in case it is a bacterial infection that can be treated with anti-biotics. Olga
