Rosalia

Hello all...

I just wanted to let you know about Rosalia. She came down with the flu yesterday and threw up well into the evening. This, paired with a high fever and the inability to calm down spurred Mark and I into taking her to Children's Hospital After Hours care. We were there until 2am and then they sent us on to Children's Hospital in Aurora. Rosalia was finally by this time able to keep down some liquids and had had one wet diaper, but she had a small bit of blood in her stool and severe abdominal pain. The doctor was worried that she had a problem with her intestines where one side sucks in the other side causing it to deflate. Once at Children's they gave her 3 x-rays and discovered that she did have air in her intestine and that we wouldn't have to proceed any further other than helping her recover from a very bad case of the flu. Poor Rosalia was one sick little girl. All said and done she was up for almost 24 hours with only a couple of hours of sleep and was flat out exhausted. We are all home now and Rosalia and daddy are sleeping. Gianna and I are hanging out and so far Gianna hasn't acted sick. Cross your fingers that she stays healthy! Well, I just wanted to update everyone on what is going on.
