The Strep Has Struck

Monday, December 22, 2008
After a weekend of full of fever, coughing, runny nose, very little sleep or eating, and crying, we decided I should take Kate to the doctor today. After sitting as patiently as possible in the big waiting room for 45 minutes we finally made it to a little waiting room in the back and all my girl wanted to do was lay on the table. That's when you know your typically curious and often precocious two year old is definitely sick. About 45 more minutes, an exam, a throat culture, a popsicle, a prescription, and a few stickers later, we left the office with the diagnosis of strep throat and a possible ear infection.

There are definitely many things that are much worse than strep throat and we are so thankful to be able to go to the doctor to get help for our girl - yet this is still a tough time in Kate's little girl world. Please pray for us as we try to keep her hydrated, happy, and healed!
