The Last Ten Days
You wouldn't believe me even if I had pictures or a video camera. But the last ten days have been a roller coaster of nursing sick babies. Grace was sick starting on the 9th, Jack got sick on the 10th sick, we had baby Gabby for a few days who bless her heart was also sick, Grace was sick again (all over couches and beds) Thursday-Sunday, and then this morning we had to take Jack to the ER. He now has sepsis and an ear infection. How the heck he got a blood infection is beyond me. But I am thanking God this afternoon that I was at the right place at the right time (as we were walking into the heath clinic he started to turn blue), and that we are not dealing with the 2005/2006 Gutherie. I was very pleased how Jack was handled/treated this morning. They did baby CPR, x-rays, an iv, blood tests, urine and fecal tests... and Jack was a trooper through the whole thing even falling asleep while they were putting in the catheter. We have to go back for three days for Jack to get a series of shots of antibiotics. So... last Friday I thought I was done with sick babies... hopefully, by Saturday I will be done with sick babies... for at least awhile.
