House of the Sick

Reese and I got to spend her first Fourth of July indoors and VERY sick! On Sunday the 3rd Reese was acting very strange all day. She just wanted to be held all day and if I put her down she would scream, and then at 3 I noticed that she felt super hot. Checked her temp and sure enough 102.1. So I decided to take her to the ER since it was a holiday the next day and didn't want to wait for the dr's office to open. The Dr said she has double ear infections. Poor girl!! So she got antibiotics and was good to go.
Then on Monday I woke up at 2 in the morning with a 102 fever and chills and the WORST sore throat. YUCK. I went to my Dr on Tuesday morning and I had strep throat!!
He said that he was about 99% sure that Reese had it too. Her symptoms matched and he said with her and I in such close contact we gave it to one another. But the antibiotic they gave her at the ER would kill strep too, so he said there was no point in testing her, if she had it, it will be taken care of.
Well today is Thursday and I feel so so much better. I even went back to the gym today!
Reese is back to her normal self and the best part is she is sleeping ALL night every night, and has been taking great naps during the day. I am SO happy my Boo is feeling better.
Now let's hope we all stay healthy for the rest of the summer!!
