Happy Birthday to Grammy!!
She tried popsicles, not sure she liked the cold feeling
This is her new 'trick' i'm certain she learned it from her sister who rolls around the house rather than walking. If we say Libbi do tumbling, this is what we get :)
Chillin with dad watching March Madness
For future sake i am going to type a long boring report of her sickness. Read at your own risk :)
Libbi started throwing up on a Tues night. We heard her making some noise, waited a bit then went back to sleep when we felt like she was ok, if we go in her room, we wake her up and she makes noises alot in her sleep, coughing etc. The next morning we discovered she had thrown up. Talk about feeling like a piece or crap mom! She didn't make more than a tiny peep in the night, i had no idea she was puking all over herself :( Wednesday she threw up a couple times, one of which was in the car, again i didn't even know til i got home and went to get her out. Not a peep! She threw up again that night, we got up cleaned her up and went to bed. The next morning, she had thrown up on herself again, without us knowing! We heard nothing, and let me reassure you, i am a heavy sleeper but Kurt IS NOT! He wakes up to every sound she makes. By Thursday i decided to call the Dr, mainly to make sure he would be in on Friday if i needed him. When she was throwing up, it wasn't alot coming out, and she really wasn't throwing up a ton, only maybe 5 times in the 2 days. I was mostly being paranoid due to Anna's weird virus she had just been in the hospital for. Well of course he wanted to see her, even after me saying, "i really think she's fine, should we give it another day?" So i took her in on Thursday and at first Dr. Rose was thinking she had a bt shunt, so he was worried about blood clotting in her shunt from being dehydrated. We then talked and he realized she did not have a bt shunt, he still felt he should hospitalize her, just to make sure her heart was ok. She showed NO signs of dehydration. She wasn't lethargic, and her skin would come back to the normal color in just a couple seconds when you would press on it.(that's a test of dehydration i guess) Well, once she was admitted and had the blood work done, she was way worse than he had anticipated. Her blodd sugar was extremely (dangerously as he worded it) low. And her bicath (i think) was way low too, meaning she was very dehydrated. Ok so i just have to throw this out there, her oxygen is always low, her hemadocrit is always high, do you think these numbers may be off due to her heart, and maybe she wasn't really that sick at all??? I don't know, just my thoughts because again, she showed NO signs of dehydration. Anyway, she stayed Thur and Fri night and got to come home Saturday afternoon. I had to take her in for blood work twice last week and he wants me to take her again this week sometime, her liver enzymes were a little high still, and he wanted to make sure her blood sugar stayed up. I'm just getting up the courage to go :) Her 1 year well visit was yesterday so she had 4 shots! Yes 4! So i thought i'd give it a day or 2 before more pokes. She is fine and well now, thank goodness! Thanks for reading if you did, i know that was alot of boring information for most of you :)
