Sick as a dog

Yesterday about 9:00 a.m. Alexandra's temperature spiked to 105. It had been between 100 and 101 for about a day. We took Alexandra to the doctor because of her symptoms. The ladies at the doctors office were in tears because they were use to seeing Alexandra as an entertainer not a lifeless patient. You all know how Alexandra is full of life and never sits down or takes naps. She was burning up, red, had chills, crying, and sleeping. After several tests at the office (they can check for the flu now) they came to the conclusion it was walking pneumonia. She is on antibiotics, tylenol, and motrin. This morning about 3:00 a.m. her temperature was 104 but it is now down to 101. She is full of energy this morning and is making up for loss time. She seems to be recovering fine. We will talk to the doctor this morning and see if we need to take her back to the doctor today or tomorrow. I am very grateful that Toby took off yesterday and went to the doctor with us. He is also off today and tomorrow. We are watching Avery to make sure she doesn't catch this from Alexandra. Thanks to those of you who have been keeping us in your prayers!!
