This is just a quick post to ask for your prayers. We went back to the pedi today and Abby Kate has RSV (a respiratory virus). She also has a severe ear infection and a yeast infection from the antibiotics. She is a sick baby. She got a shot of antibiotics today, which he said should help her start feeling better almost instantly, and a medicine for her yeast infection. She is sleeping wonderfully right now, something she hasn't been getting much of....
As for the RSV, he said it usually goes away on its own or she will have to be hospitalized. This is not typical of children over 1 though. We are just believing she will be better soon. He said it could take up to another 7 days though. This is something else that is hard....Bobby and I leave Thursday morning for Lake Tahoe (my Christmas/birthday present) and will be gone 5 days. It is the first time I have been away from her for more than 1 night and far enough away I cannot get to her. I am not a crazy mother that thinks my child cannot live without me (she has shown her independent nature all along) but you know how it is when you are sick. She will be staying with my Mom and Dad who I trust implicitly but it would be hard to leave her if she was still sick. Thank you all so much for praying and checking on us up to this point. We continue to covet your prayers....
