The
day of Thanksgiving Livvy was acting a little off...
She
didn't eat anything (Which isn't super abnormal) but she
also
wouldn't drink much and she had diarrhea :(
The
next day I had plans with Kohleen and Suzie to get a pedicure, go to
lunch and go see Mocking Jay so I was gone most of the day.
Trent
text me half way through our day to tell
me
that Livvy had a fever and refused to even take a sip of any kind
of
liquid and that she had been sleeping on and off all day.
When
I got home I saw that she wasn't doing too great but I made Trent
go
have some time to do what he wanted to do,
thinking
I would just hangout at home
and
get Livvy to drink something.
About
a half hour after Trent left I was holding
Livvy
and she was acting really weird and was delusional,
she
kept saying she wanted her Mommy and I kept telling her
I
was right here and holding her.
It
just wasn't registering that it was me holding her. I decided it was
time
to take her to instacare but since Trent was
unreachable
I called Jenna and she willingly
came
and got Owen and Kynslie and took
them
to her house for a sleep over so I could take care of Livvy.
We
are so blessed to have Jenna near!
The
Doctor at the instacare said that Livvy was moderately
dehydrated
and he wanted me to take her to
the
ER to get some fluids, so off to the ER we went.
I
took a few extra minutes and stopped by the temple to leave
a
note on Trents car telling him where we were and what
was
going on. (He had forgotten his phone.)
After
we were all checked into the ER and back in a treatment room,
Trent
showed up! I was so glad to see him!
The
Doctor came in literally 2 minutes after Trent got there and assessed
Livvy
and said that she was on the border of severely dehydrated
and
most doctors would just put an IV line in but he wanted to try Zofran
first
and just see if that would help make it so she would drink something.
Livvy
took the Zofran but still refused to drink anything...
Just
when we had given up hope and they were going to go
get
stuff for an IV, we told Livvy if she didn't drink she would
get
a big poke but if she would drink then no pokes for her.
She
decided to drink a whole glass of water and she kept it down!
We
stayed for about 30 more minutes to make sure she kept down the water
and then they sent us home with Zofran.
By
the next day Livvy was doing SOOOOO much better!
