Sick Days

As I wind down from this weekends events, I am finally comforted to know my precious little girl is soundly asleep. We had an eventful weekend. Brylie started it off with a Friday night fever that climbed throughout Saturday up to 104. New mom + 104 fever = Worried/scared/sad. We decided to head to the ER Saturday evening.

First hospital trip at the ripe old age of 16 months. I was not a fan. Dan was not a fan. And, Brylie was not a fan. She was poked, prodded, X-rayed, swabbed...you name it. In the end of all this, for peace of mind. Brylie was diagnosed with a virus. Now, I know what you are thinking. A virus and you went to the ER? Well, this virus has been nasty. She had high fevers, not drinking fluids, not eating anything (even ice cream!). It has not been a friendly virus. This evening, Brylie finally ate some fruit, ice cream, 2 green beans, and water. Sounds like a yummy dinner, but we were happy with whatever we could get in her!

Hopefully, tomorrow will be a brighter day for the Whorton family. On a side note, i must say my husband saved the day. I had a sleepless Saturday night. He took over today and kept Brylie safe, happy, and even brought smiles to her face. I absolutely, 100% love him. Thank you Dan.

  1. Definitely a good hubby...and perhaps an even better Daddy - one that can do all that AND let the Mommy sleep. A+, Dan!!
