tired eyes

Extremely high temp: check. En fuego skin: check. Most tired eyes you have ever seen: check. Ridiculously cuddly: check. Restless: check. Waking during sleep: check. Vomiting: check. Stinky breath: check.

My poor sweet girl has not been herself for the last few days.  Her temperature just keeps getting higher & higher despite alternating ibuprofen & tylenol. She has been a super trooper.
We spent 2 1/2 hours + at the doctors waiting trying to figure out what is causing Addison's 104° temp. Of course they said it's viral & couldn't tell me anything at all other than to continue alternating between ibuprofen & tylenol. Her ears were ok. Her throat had papules (solid elevation of skin with no visible fluid) but wasn't red so they said it was unlikely strep & did not culture her. They cathed her (worst experience EVER) & she was negative for a UTI.  No chest congestion, no runny nose, just this pesky fever that is robbing my sweet girl of her usually bubbly & sweet personality.
It's the worst feeling as a parent to see your little one sick especially when communication is minimal.  The worst part is, I have to work tonight. Although I know her Daddy will take good care of her it seems ironic to leave MY sick baby to take care of other people's sick babies/family members.

I wish I could wave a wand & make her feel better or be sick for her. Sick babies are the worst!
