Sick Again!!!

Please pray for sweet Emmy!! We were admitted this morning for another fever! She has not been acting quite like herself the last 2 days, so I wasn't totally shocked when she woke up with 101.5 temp this morning!! I know that doesn't sound very high, but when you are a sickle cell patient, that is a very BAD thing!!! Anytime she runs a fever she is admitted, and they run blood cultures to make sure that she does not have any serious bacterial infections!!! So, in about 48 hours we will know whether or not her cultures grew anything. In the meantime, she is on IV fluids, 2 IV antibiotics and inhaled steroids for her cough and wheezing!!! Please keep sweet Emmy in your prayers, and I will keep you updated!
