Fever down..

Kelly's fever has been below 100 for 36 hours. That is great news. The doctors have said the rash is not chicken pox. They believe it is a drug allergy. Then why do they keep giving her drugs? The rash is still nasty. The biopsy came back negative. She still can't walk without help. She is sleeping most of the day. Her sodium, potassium and magnesium are still low. At least her fever is down and if it stays down she should start to rebound quickly. On a side note Jenelle has had a couple of really bad seizures. She had to be sent home from school today because she had a 5 minute seizure. I don't think she likes mommy getting all the attention. But the fever being down is good news. And we will take it. I found a Cold Stone within walking distance. So Kelly wants ice cream for dinner. Sounds good to me.

Sounds like some good news for her - finally! We are all still praying for her. I hope Jenelle is doing ok, too. God bless your family.

Kelly and Brett,

You remain in my prayers. I hope your nursing care has improved. As a nurse, it always saddens and angers me to read of people getting poor care. Need me to come kick some rear???? I'll do it!!!!
