Day 67, March 22
Fever Girl…Allyson’s new nickname…Yes, she still has a fever. We woke up around 2:00 this morning because Allyson was restless. When we took her temp, it was 101. We gave her some Tylenol, and that seemed to help because she was able to get back to sleep. I had to call Dr. Rob in the morning to give him an update. He said he didn’t need to see her unless she got worse or wasn’t drinking enough fluids. We just need to keep an eye on her the next few days and hope the antibiotic does the trick. Monday’s procedure (the one that was supposed to happy this past Friday)is now postponed, again. We are not sure what the new date will be just yet. She has to get rid of this darn fever first.
Ms. Chris came by yesterday and brought Allyson and Benjamin big stuffed “Peeps”. The kids LOVE them. Allyson loves to toss hers back and forth with us and yell, “Peeps! Peeps!” Benjamin just giggles and sort of tosses his around.
Brad’s parents made it in okay this evening. Ally was glad to see both of them. Benjamin followed Gramps around all night. He’s taken a liking to his Gramps. The neighbors came over and we had an excellent meal and some good wine.
Benjamin went right down when it was time for bed. Allyson did as well. Lets hope and pray and keep all fingers and toes crossed that this fever of Allyson’s goes away tonight.
