One bar means negative.
The weight of the day was lifted at midnight. She awoke as we crawled into bed with her and shrieked again... this time with joy. Time to play.

"Should we give her the test?"
Yesterday, Eleanor's temp went up to 99.9 and each time we tried to give her acetaminophen she threw-up. I tore through the bathroom looking for the Malaria test kit and pediatric medicine. Listless and moaning, wearing only a diaper and clinging to Kiyah, she shrieked when the prick went into her big toe. Blood into the small hole, 5 drops of the buffer in the big hole... and then we had to wait for 15 minutes.

Oh Kiyah, How scary. Glad to read that everything is alright. Sounds like you had a nice birthday celebration for Eleanor. I am gearing up to defend in just one month and can't believe it's just around the corner. Talk soon, Alison
ReplyDeleteThat had to be a long 15 minutes. Whew.
