Hospital :(

As many of you probably already know, we are at the hospital with Lyla in Tucson. She got a nasty virus (at least that's what we suspect it is) and wasn't eating or drinking for a few days. She also was having pretty high fevers and vomitting and was very lethargic. She got dehydrated enough that the doctor said she needed to go to the ER for IV hydration. They have ruled out meningitis, UTI, and pretty much see no evidence of any bacterial infection. Also, the IV antibiotics she's been getting have not brought down her fevers or made her feel better. That's why we're thinking it's viral. She's coming around very slowly, but surely. She's no longer dehydrated so they capped her IV this morning. She's eating and drinking better, and is keeping it down, so there's a possibility she could be discharged this evening. That would be great! The care here has been really wonderful, but it's no GL. :) Thanks so much for all your prayers and support. I'll try to keep the blog updated.
