Poor Baby
Katie started running a tempature on friday morning at 3 am. It got up to 103 yesturday but that seemed to be the only problem so she went home with her dad last night. Only for her dad to be called home from work by his mom because her temp got upto 105 and they couldn't get it to come down even with numerous baths and lots of tylenol. So we decided it was best to just take her in to the doctor and see what was going on. I met up with her dad there and all she wanted was for mommy to hold her. Well the doctor checked her ears and they were all clear which was a big relief because we thought she might have had an ear infection again. But only to make us feel worse they had to check her throut (sp?) so we had to hold her down. They found out her tonsils were swollen and infected badly. The doctor gave us amoxicillian and warned us if it didnt get better by Wednesday we would have to take her to her primary care physichian. She said with how bad it was that they might want to take Miss Mae's tonsils out if it doesnt get better or even if it does she may keep having problems with them so they might still have to take them out. Right now they are so swollen that they are the size of a grown ups tonsils which is causing her airway to be blocked alittle bit. But really other than her fever she has been in good spirits running around and playing until her fever climbs back up and then she gets cranky. So we will see where this week leads us and how she is doing.
