Back in the saddle...

It's been a busy summer. And it really was never my intention to make this into a "I'm only posting when we're in the hospital" blog. But for the moment, I guess that is what it has become!

So yes, Cece is back in the hospital. We came in through the ER at about 6:30 last night, and about 6 hours later we finally made it up to our room in Peds. Not sure why it has become such a long wait to get from there to here but it was 6 hours when we were here 2 months ago as well! In any case, her temp was 102.8 so we followed the usual routine...pack up...call the hematologist...drive to the hospital. Only this time, she started crying as soon as we walked in the door because the memory was a bit too fresh. I guess that's just going to be the way things are as she gets older and remembers things more clearly.

Her temp was up to 104.5, with Tylenol, at 1 am this morning. But for now she's at 100.1, playing with her new felt farm toy, and watching Winnie the Pooh. So all is good for the moment! They've done every test under the sun and everything has come back negative. So she'll stay on her IV for at least another day and then we will wait and see what the doctors recommend. With any luck she will get to sleep in her own bed on Wednesday or Thursday night.

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers!

I pray for the cause of the fever to either reveal itself or resolve immediately. I pray that she and your entire family be comforted during this time and I pray that her general health would return and continue in Jesus' name. Hope everything else is going well!! =)

This is so stinky, what a back to the blogging post :( Still (and always) praying for Cece. And of course for you and Fred!

Hope Fred had some nice Daddy/Daughter time and that the princess is home VERY soon!

God Bless!
