Christmas Eve in the E.R.
posted on 12/27/2007
We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. We had a good one except Raleigh's first Emergency Room visit.
Saturday Raleigh started feeling bad. He felt warm to the touch and he was very fussy. Well Sunday when he was still acting the same way we got worried. Raleigh has always been so sweet and never fussy & sad. So Sunday we got home from Christmas lunch and took his temp. and it was 102.6. Well we were very worried but we called the Doctor and were told to do bath's and tylenol to bring the temp. down. Well that worked until Monday morning it was back up but by that afternoon it was down slightly. So rather then skip my family's Christmas we loosely dressed him and left. We only stayed two hours but he was very upset and clearly miserable. When we got home it was at 103.6 and we were told to come to the Hospital. It turns out to be a viral infection and sore throat. They gave us Amoxicillin and that seems to be helping. Today is the first day temp. free. Please pray for Raleigh to have a quick recovery. It is so tough to see him in pain and it was very scary for a while. Thank you everyone for all your thoughts and PRESENTS!! :)
