Sickness

Well it kinda sounds like the flu is going around.
Paige was still really sick Monday, so I called the healthline and they said she had all the symptoms of being dehydrated so I took her into the hospital at 9:30. Jared still wasn't home from work, so I had to take Dominic too.
Dr. Botha said she was in deed dehydrated, and she would need to spend the night. I almost started crying right there. Jared had been working late nights, and Paige was sick, now I didn't know who to ask for help with dominic..Everything was just building up. so Shylee came and took Dominic for the night, thank GOOD NESS!
Paige was given a gravol suppository, and put on a "pedialyte" diet. Tuesday morn, they told me that they wanted to take her blood to see if she had an infection, that came back normal..so we got discharged.
Ever since we've been home she's been the same. Will only keep down pedialyte unless I give her gravol first. So I've been trying to do that, so she doesn't get dehydrated again. She is getting so skinny though. She was never big...and man I'm just bawling.. I hate this..

And now to top things off, I got the flu! So I feel like crap, want to puke, sleep and sleep some more...but I have a toddler running around, and a sick baby... And Jared will probably work late tonight...just b/c I could really really use him at home.

If things keep up like this...we won't be staying at Melissa's tomorrow night..b/c there is no way I am giving her daughter this flu...I don't even want to chance it.

Well here's to positive thinking and that things will get better!
