Shout it from the rooftops!

After 7 days of fever, my girl is finally fever free! PRAISE GOD and AMEN!

Did you read that correctly? SEVEN days. S-E-V-E-N.

I finally brought her to the doctor yesterday. Call me whatever you want... neglectful, irresponsible... but, honestly her main symptom was fever so I didn't feel it was necessary to drag her to the doctor and be exposed to countless other viruses.

But, on Tuesday, she began to develop a cough, and after noticing that her cough was getting worse on Wednesday, we decided to bring her to the doctor on Thursday. They tested her for strep and the flu and BOTH came back negative.

The doctor said, "Let it run it's course" which is what I had originally planned to do and then that pesky cough entered the picture.

Nonetheless... I guess the "course" was 7 days! Seven days and she missed:
  • 4 days of school (Monday was a holiday.)
  • 1 volleyball game
  • 1 soccer game
  • 2 soccer practices
  • 1 volleyball practice
She probably needed the break... Now, it's back to work (and play) for my girl! Yay!

1 of you are mildly amused:

  1. She looks so tiny!! Glad she is mended and back to making the world a sunny place again.
