Well, here we are. Annelise threw up last night at about 8pm. She started with a headache at about 7, and I thought she was just saying her head hurt because I had a terrible headache for the past 2 days. But then she started to get pale and she would'nt eat her supper (totally unlike her). Then Brian said that she and I complained so much that he was starting to feel bad, too. (I swear, sometimes he is so sick in the head...) I went to get in the tub because I could not even think about eating, and I put Annelise in our bed while I was in the tub and she watched TV. Well, about 15 minutes went by and I heard her throwing up. I was freaking out because I just knew it was all in our bed and mattress. Bless her heart, though, she had gotten a grocery bag from the cabinet on her way up to our bed "just in case" and she managed to get it all in the bag. This is one of those times I am so glad to be married to a pediatrician. We have all sorts of medications on hand at all times. We gave her a phenergan and a zofran and she fell asleep and actually slept through the night. We just left her in our bed and I slept with her. The picture is of her this morning. She is still a bit pale, but she did manage to eat some saltines and some jello. She was supposed to have her K-5 graduation pictures made this morning, but that will not be happening. Emmaline seems fine, so far..... She is dancing around the house in her ballerina tu-tu. They are supposed to go spend the night with my parents tommorrow night. I am keeping my fingers crossed that they will be able to go. They were so excited about it. (Brian and I were kind of looking forward to it, too.) I am feeling a little better this morning. I am just going to play it by ear with Annelise today. Oh, well- at least I can get the laundry done before I have to do phone triage this afternoon. Say a little prayer for Annelise, maybe she will feel better by tonight.
