My Joy Joy in the Hospital

Last Friday Felicity had a 101* temp. It pretty much stayed around 99-100 all wkend with Tylenol & Ibu. She'd be happy then sleepy, nothing of great concern. She's cutting 4 molars, so I thought that could be the cause as well. But Monday we called the dr bc her appetite was decreasing, as well as her drinking, & she developed diarrhea. We got in at 1:00. She cried at seeing the dr and this wore her out. Her fever had broke and she had a little rash started on her neck. They took blood to test. By 4:00 they called us back & said her CRP & EDR levels were way too high. So they admired her to the hospital.  They thought it may be roseola (non-life-threatening and goes away on its own) or Kawasaki disease (needs treatment & can be detrimental to the heart).  So we stayed overnight & they monitored her heart & O2.  
They took more blood x2 (that is horrible) & decided that her levels had decreased & it was roseola. Her WBC was on its way back up as well. PTL!  By 6 pm Tuesday we were on out and on our way home. Lots of prayers and cuddles for me sweetie.
