The girlie, she has been running fevers. The worst was last night and today, plus she started with a funky rash thing all over her body. Her heartrate has been way up there too... tachycardia. We have spent all day, running back and forth with the Esophagram, Xray, CT scan plus no more eating or drinking. Plus her IV lines have repeatedly failed, so now they have one in her foot. She is not allowed to walk anymore. Not that she wants to, she feels pretty crappy.
I've had my moments feeling pretty crappy today too.
All the tests look normal, but they aren't taking any chances. Next come some blood tests and tests to see if she has a bladder infection. I'm just hoping its some dumb virus that just freakin' goes away!
hope.
Sadly, they had let here start with soft foods yesterday, and they were set to pull the drains in her neck last night. The nurses had fully expected to send us home today... tomorrow at the latest. Now the best we can hope is for the fever to stay away for 24 hours and then start with the liquids again.

I suppose it was too much to hope that things could go so well with no hitches. Praying it is a SMALL hitch.
