My daughter had her adnoids out and tubes in... easy enough right ??? WRONG.  Adnoids gave them some problems so a bit longer in the O.R. ok.... doable.. had to give her morphine for pain k.... understandable.  all things were a go came home all ok  than about 4 days later she is a different kid. In dr. terms she is "altered" a fever of 102' a horrific rash all over and pain in the back of her head?? wtf OK so I dont want to be "that" mom and didnt rush her to the er I wait till the morning. They take one look at her and note she is "altered"  so they draw 97 viles of blood  or what seems like that in a 3 yo arm!!!  and start to push antibiotics ...

Ok I get it... they say at this point... take her home we'll call with the results. UM OK.!!!!! Im no Doctor.. I am also not an over reactor so I figure I go home... and watch. Last night a repeat  preformance... crying in pain the codine not even touching it, fever , rash looks worse. I go in today as per the dr. to be told she has an Infection Of Unknown Origin.. NOW WHAT THE FUCK! she's 3 do you think maybe you could muster up enough get up and figure it the fuck out? So off to the Infectious Diease Dr tomorrow  and a cat scan down at primarys childrens hospital. all the while because I know a few of the Dr.s outside of the office one's telling me to worry about meningitis... HU? one telling me to just watch her... and another to get her to the Hospital... BUT in the same breathe telling me she prolly got it from the Hospital and its a breeding ground for germs and infection...WELL no Shit sherlock.

So now I'm home haven't really slept since Sat. Looking at her sleep .. Dont they always look so pethetic  when they sleep sick?  Pale and just "off"   I'm cranky cause Im so concerned... with no real answers .... haven't slept but I still need to be Mom for the other 2... cook, clean.. recitals. Graduations .. and the Girls scout meeting tonight is our service project ... And not one of these God damn Mothers will cover for me!!!!  Ry's doing his best.. he is working because if he stays home like he wants I bitch in 2 weeks the pay check sucks. lol..  But he is doing what he can.

Poor kid :( Hope she gets better soon, a 3-year old shouldn't have to go through that! (neither should her kick-ass/ass-kicking mom!).

holy crap that sucks! having your kid sick is the scariest thing in the world. I am really not a fan of doctors and I hate hospitals. Hope your daughter recovers fast.

I hope your little girl gets better soon. I hate that feeling when I am wondering if the medical profession is jerking me around.
