Feb 25 - In the Hospital

Saturday started as a decent day.  Lilly and I went to help clean the church in the morning.  I needed to get the girls out of the house for the afternoon, so I took them to Red Robin for lunch and then to the Pacific Science Center after that.  The girls had fun, but Sarah didn't last much longer than a hour.  I am sure that it is the same way that her auntie Shannon feels after some walking.  We got home and Sarah took a nap, while Lilly skyped with her aunties.  

We woke up Sarah for dinner, and she felt hot.  Her temperature was 103.6 F.  We called the oncall and got cream on her port site, so she was ready to go.  We packed her some food and headed to the ED.  At the ED, she got some labs drawn and got some fluid.  They gave her some anti-biotics, as well.  However, her heart-rate continued to stay high.  The decided to admit her over night to see how she was doing.  One of the tests has already come back as positive for the Rhino virus.  This virus causes the common cold.

We are grateful for the support that we have received.  I am personally grateful for all those who help so that my wife doesn't have to worry about so many things.  Our family is happier because of it.  We love you all and may the Lord bless you.
