Poor Kailei


Poor Kailei was sick as a dog late last week. Her school called on Thursday wanting us to come get her because she had a temperature. Zeb picked her up and for most of the afternoon and into the night she ran a fever and had a bad stomach ache. She actually threw up as well so we thought she might have the flu.

Come Friday her fever was still there and she continued to complain of a stomach ache and now a sore throat. I took off of work to take care of her and decided to take her to the doctor. Turns out she had strep throat. Poor thing. Later that afternoon she broke out in a quite a rash and spent most of the day complaining about her stomach.
I sat with her for most of the day on the couch cuddling and trying to console her with an occasional break from Zeb. (I believe I can now recite lines from "Barbie and the Diamond Castle" movie.)

Anyway, she was put on an antibiotic and come Saturday morning she woke up and immediately told us she was hungry. Our Kailei was back to feeling better. Actually Zeb called me on the phone around 10am saying she finally finished breakfast. It took forever that morning because she was talking non-stop. Whew!
