Poor Karsyn

Wow, I am so lucky to have such a great husband. I can't believe he snuck into my blog and did that. He is the best, I couldn't ask for anything better. This week has been crazy with poor little Karsyn. She got so sick. It started on Tuesday. She acted fine during the day and she ate really good. Then that night she threw up about six times. On wednesday she threw up once in the morning and then the rest of the day she acted almost back to her old self accept she wasn't eating very well but we thought she was getting better. Then on Thursday morning she threw up again, so now I was pretty worried. I got her in to see the dr., and of course she had to throw up right before we walked in to the Dr.s office, anyways they said she caught a flu virus but were a little concerned that she was becoming dehyderated so they sent me to go get some blood taken. Karsyn was pretty sad when she had to get her blood taken, wasn't fun to watch. We stopped at the store and picked up some pedialite and some popsicles. She drank half of the pedialite took a nap and still woke up really out of it. The Dr. then called me and said her results came in and she was really dry, so I needed to take her into the ER to get an IV in her. We had to wait for Adam to get home, so I took her upstairs to visit with grandma to see if that would perk her up and I then decided to try the popsicles, she loved them. She ate a whole one then half of another one. Adam got home and we left. It was a long night. The ER was so packed with so many sick kids. Long story short they did a cathedir to check her urine and the results came in that she wasn't as bad anymore so they didn't have to do an IV, because she drank the pedialite and popsicles at home. Seven 1/2 hours later we went back home, we probably didn't even have to go, but it's one of those things where you are better to be safe then sorry. I can say now that she is about 99% to being her old happy self. It is so hard to see your child so sick, i felt so helpless. I hope that next week is a lot better.
