Our lovely weekend

On Friday morning Amelia appeared to be fine, she ran around laughed, played just like any other day. Then at 11:30 she comes down with severe stomach pain. Now me being the great mother that I am said ah your just hungry, eat a cracker and you'll be fine. She tries to eat one, but only gets one bite in when I turn around and look at her and the color in her face was completely gone. I was like oh no she's sick. She immediately starts throwing up and so I put her in the bath to clean up. The whole time she is still complaining that her stomach hurts. She gets out of the tub and she can't stand or walk because of the pain and so I called the doctor and they say to take her immediately to urgent care. So we take her, they run a few tests, took some X-rays and see that she has a lot of stool in her stomach. Gross I know. So we have to go home and do a suppository and an over the counter enema. We do all those things and she is still in pain and so we call the doctor again and they tell us to take her to Primary Childrens and have her checked out. By the time we get there she is running a high fever and has started throwing up again. We were like great she is really sick. This by the way is 6:30 in the evening. We get back into a room and wait FOREVER they run the million dollar check up on her. What's that you ask well it's blood work, urine work, 2 CT scans, more X-rays, and ultra sounds. Finally by 3:00 a.m. they find that she has a urinary tract infection that has gone to her kidneys. They admit her so that she can be loaded up with fluids and antibiotics. So on Saturday at 4:00 pm we are finally released from the hospital and able to go home. It was one heck of a weekend, but we are grateful for the good results and the good nurses and doctors that took such good care of her. Also thank you to all the family and friends that came and brought her little presents to make her feel better. They sure did help! She is feeling much better and is back to her little old self again!
