Just took Emily to the ER today. What a production it was. She has been fighting an upper respratory cold for few days now. She was having some rough nights but generally better during the days. We decided to take her to urgent care this morning as she just didn't seem herself but it didn't warrant the ER. Well after spending 3 hours there (most of it waiting) they told us to go to the ER where we spent several more hours before little Emily was released.
Her and Mom are back home resting a little better now. It turned out she had a touch of the Croup and minor ear infection. She is now on a smorgasbord of drugs for the next few days to clear things up.
It was so hard watching her get pocked for blood tests then restrained for x-rays. All I wanted to do was trade places with her. It is so hard to watch your kid be sick and know you can't make them better instantly.
