Finally!

So I wrote last weekend saying how Brynn was sick again.. well it turned into her getting dehydrated again and having to get admitted to the hospital AGAIN! It was awful. I just feel so sorry for her. The thing is when she is sick like that she won't drink anything. We try pedialyte, gatorade, juice, and she won't drink any of them. She just lets them run out of her mouth, down her face, or just pushes the bottle out of her mouth with her tongue. So the only thing she will drink is her regular bottle but then you can't give her that because she throws it up, so it was a losing battle. We would try to just give her like 10 ml at a time in a dosing syringe but she wouldn't swallow that either.

So Monday we went to the doctor after her throwing up since Thursday night. They did blood work and her electrolytes were low so they left it up to me as to what I wanted to do.. she wasn't as bad off as the time before but they were afraid it was heading in that direction. Of course I didn't want her to be admitted and have to go thru getting an IV again.. so the doctor let us leave the office but said if she got sick again to call the office. So around three that day she got sick again so back to the hospital she went. It was so sad to have to take her back. We were there for 24 hours and then got to come home. That was Tuesday evening.. and she is finally starting to act like herself again.

She is with my parents this weekend because Josh and I have to work.. I hated to send her away after being sick but I have missed work more this year than ever before in my life with her being sick so much. Plus, I think the break is good for both of us. She got very clingy during all of us, understandable so, but wanted me to hold her all the time. She hasn't been to the babysitter since the Thursday before last and I don't think Suzanne would enjoy having to hold her all day long with two kids of her own.

I want to wish my friend Jill, a happy 30th birthday!! We have been friends our entire lives. I can't believe we are both 30. We have been thru everything together.. and I am blessed to have her in my life!
