Completely Exhausted! !

Alannah had such a hard couple of days of vomiting and super high fevers that started early Monday morning.
Yesterday, I decided to take her to our wonderful ER. Well, we were finally released after just 7 hours with the knowledge of...
she has a case of bacterial pneumonia.
It was worth the trip as she came to the hospital with a 104 temp, and went through 2 saline bags, a dose of antibiotics, 3 needle pokes, 4 X rays, no food and pale as pale can be with dry heaving.
She was complemented many times by her nurses. She did AWESOME! She has a super high pain tolerance.
Today's update: She is doing so much better! No more high fevers, she eating and keeping her food down.
Anyway, It has been exhausting for me, as this is Scott's 1st full week of work and school. He is gone from 6 a.m. till 8:30 p.m. with the exception of 2 breaks in between.
I'm sure I will get on a better routine, since she is doing well.

...She's pale as pale as pale can be, be. She wants to puke away but don't know how. Sometimes it feels just like she stuck inside the E.R.. Let the nurse come a prick her arm. Let the doctor do nothing special, yeah. Let the momma go and take her home right now. Home right now.

Ugh. I am so sorry to hear that Allanah has been sick. I am glad she is on the mend though. I miss chatting with you on FB!
