Little Miss in Hospital

It's been a while since I have posted but I have been a little stressed. Last week LM was a bit sick, with a bit of a could and fever. I kept her home one day and the next she seemed better so back to daycare. That evening when I picked her up she seemed find but her ear was red and sticking out. Thought we just go to the doctor on the way home. He sent us straight to the children's hospital. LM has an infection and due to its location they take it very seriously. She has been on IV antibiotics and had the infection drain this morning. Its looking like we will get to go home Monday, but they will want me to keep her home for a week, for her own protection as they don't want her getting bumped by other children. Its the first time she has been in the hospital since the week she was born and it has been quiet stressful. Things are on the mend now so am feeling a bit better as I sit her watching her sleep. I must say what a nice hospital the Alberta children's is, we are lucky to live some where this kind of treatment is easily assessable.

Poor thing - ear infections in babies can be really painful. Jess had a cracker when she was tiny. Hope all is getting better now xxx

It's awful when your kids get sick and have to be hospitalized. I hope all is well this week and she has a full recovery.

Oh my!! I sure hope the poor little baby is better now.

Children's hospital is a great place. My sister works there in the lab and Hunter goes there quite often. You are lucky to have it there.
