Please Pray for Molly

I’m home for a quick minute to grab some lunch and take a nap. Today wasn’t what I thought it’d be with Jack’s first day of school and all… He did terrific (Erk took him,I was so sorry to miss it), it wasn’t that at all – it’s just that last night around 9pm, I headed to the Emergency Room with precious Molly. She had a temp of 101.1 and after taking it twice to confirm it wasn’t a broken thermometer, her and I headed in the pouring rain to the hospital. Oh my word, I was nervous, kept feeling back in the backseat to feel her head and just to let her know I was there. I had no idea what we were in for at the hospital once we got there. They did a series of tests, had to put an IV in (they couldn’t find a good vein and despite all the pokes on her tiny little arms, they put it in her HEAD), a chest x-ray, and the worst, a spinal tap :( That’s when I lost my strength and gave in to the emotions of it all. I walked out of the room (they asked me to leave for the spinal tap part) and I bawled my freaking eyes out. Long story short, they will be keeping her until probably Thursday for observation and to rule out all possiblilities. PLEASE PRAY for us, please pray it is the virus Mikie had and that it’ll disappear quickly. It’s so hard to see our precious new baby girl with all the needles and tubes coming out of her little body. Oh if I could take that IV in my head or have the spinal tap for her, I would in an INSTANT. She has continued to have a fever (it reached 103 in the night), but we’re praying it goes away soon. Poor Mol…
