Hey everyone! I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately. I've been reading, but just haven't been responding. We're having some health problems with our 5 year old dd. The docs initially didn't believe me because she's the type of kid who doesn't act sick, even if she's sick as a dog. I kept begging them to help her, but they would take 1 look at her and say that she was fine. I can't even recall how many people turned their backs on us this week, but it was pretty disheartening.
I had to get pretty nasty after 4 days of being blown off and they FINALLY started running tests. Turns out she has a pretty serious infection in her gut somewhere, and the meds she has to take are making her very sick and lethargic. As a mom, it's hard to sit and watch that - especially when she starts asking if she's going to die. Tonight, it's all just starting to hit me and it's a pretty rough night for me. If you have any warm fuzzies to spare, I could surely use them.
Mamas (and future Mamas) don't EVER take no for an answer when your gut instinct is telling you to keep going. While I wouldn't wish this on anyone, I am glad we have at least part of the answer and can start working on bringing her back to her old self.
