Wake up call

6/12/2010

We had a wake up call at 1:00 a.m. this morning. Missy woke up with a fever of 104.5. Per the doctor's instruction we took her straight to the ER. After a urine test and X-ray we were able to find out that Missy had another UTI. Missy heart rate was also elevated which meant that she was dehydrated. We were not able to leave the hospital until she took in some fluids and her heart rate went down. Finally at 5:00 a.m. we were able to go home. She was given some antibiotics for the next 10 days. We also have to go back to the urologist this coming Monday.

Here is a picture of Missy at the hospital with a therapy dog. A different dog visited daily.

  2. Oh, we were so sorry to hear that Missy had taken ill. We are so thankful for this blog, keeping us informed without having to answer the phone so many times. We think of you all each and every day and pray for you always.

  3. Oh, I'm so sorry that she's unwell, but so happy that they were able to get things under control so quickly (I'm sure 4 hours didn't feel quickly to any of you though). Give her big hugs from us please!

  4. Hi Missy,

    I am glad you are home and feeling a little better. I miss you at school and can't wait for you to come back. I would like to come visit you sometime if it is okay with your mom.

    Love,
