Claire's sick

We took Claire into the dr. on Thursday because we were making sure she hadn't contracted impetigo from her cousin Justin! She didn't have it and while there, Neil had Dr. Gulde check her ears, lungs and throat since she has had a cough and congestion for about 2 weeks now. Everything checked out fine.... well, Claire got a fever Sat. morning and it got up to 103 on Sunday. She was so lethargic and got sick a couple times too. With all this she really hasn't slept well (or us!) for the past 2 nights. Neil's mom and dad took her back to Dr. Gulde's office this morning. He thought she had strep b/c her throat was so red and irritated but the test came back negative. Her flu test also came back negative so he is treating her for a sinus infection. My poor baby! My mom is also sick but with something GI related - hope you feel better soon mom!

This certainly doesn't make things easier when I can't have moms and kids over to help us out in fear of getting them sick. Thank GOD Elaine and Gene, Neil's parents, are off all week and have been so generous with their time. They have been so helpful during the days with Claire- thank you so much!
