Take 2

This morning at about 7, Makayla was running a fever of 103. We took her back to the ER, where they proceeded to basically traumatize her. They wanted to check to see if she had a UTI. So to get a urine sample, they had to put a catheter on her...She screamed, I cried. Then, they wanted to check her for RSV. Again, she screamed, I cried. Both were negative. Um HELLO?? She was JUST here TWO NIGHTS AGO having surgery. Why not start with a freaking X Ray to make sure she doesn't have a second airsoft pellet they didn't catch the first time, or test her for things that are relevant to her condition. Idiots. My Mom and I were not amused. They finally did a chest X Raye, and there were no signs of a second pellet. The Doctor put her on antibiotics for Pneumonia. She doesn't have it, but that would obviously be a worst case scenario, and they want to make sure it doesn't develop into it.

My poor baby girl. She is almost 15 months, and has already had 8 ear infections, 10 stitches, and 2 surgeries. She is on a twice a day for 10 days medication right now, and has had SO MANY of those. She is always on some kind of medicine, whether its just Tylenol, or antibiotics. It makes me sick to my already-sick stomach knowing that she has had some kind of pain going on, basically her whole life. She is such a trooper, and is always happy and wanting to play, regardless of what is going on. I love her more than anything and she has been such an example to me. If she can deal with everything she has, then I will be okay as well.
