Crazy change of events!!!!!

Crazy day yesterday..was about ready to have my prozac dose upped!!  When Reagan was in hospital Sunday, labs were drawn.  Monday she came up with a positive blood culture but they went ahead and let us go home thinking it was just a bad sample.  Now that culture is growing salmonella?!?!  Yesterday, dr. was getting ready to readmit her to start i.v. antibiotics to treat it but there wasn't a bed available at hospital so we were able to stay home last night.  Instead had to take her to pediatrician for another lab draw (took 3 pokes to get enough blood) and get a rocephin shot.  That's four pokes with needles in one dr. visit.  Needless to say, she and I both were worn out afterwards.  We are waiting today for news from dr. on what is going to be done.  May still have to admit in hospital.  I pray not as Ronald McDonald House has no openings right now. 
She looks wonderful and is playing non-stop.  So hard to go admit her where she'd be tethered to a monitor round the clock!  Pray, pray, praying for good news!!
