Paris' Big Scare
.jpg)
Paris gave us quite the scare...Our little petite Paris became quite ill a while back. After just a few hours of high fevers and being physically sick, we rushed Paris to the hospital fearing the worst. Doctors immediately hooked her up to an IV for dehydration and was getting her ready to transport her to a pediatric hospital downtown. After a long night with no answers, we found out the next afternoon that she had a kidney infection. To make a long story short, we spent three days and two nights in the pediatric ward and were sent home with a clean bill of health. (In order to go home the doctors wanted her eating and drinking on her own. Which is already hard considering she doesn't eat mich as it is. Daddy went to a local burger place and got her all of the favorites. We told her she could have anything she wanted. She took two tiny bites and was finished...not enough to go home that night.) Unfortunately, with Paris's already small frame it took about 3 to 4 weeks to get her back to her normal weight and eating habits.
She has been doing great! We appreciate all of your prayers and concerns! I know God is watching over her and I need to let Him take charge...it's hard as a mom. I'm still learning. Ask me how I am doing with it when she is 16! (Picture is of Paris after her fever of 104.4 finally started to break and she felt ok enough to get out of bed the second night in the hospital. She was so sad with her IV stand she had to pull around. Dan and I named it her "friend".)
