For most of us.. seeing our kids sick is a heartache, but we do all we can to sooth them and help them get back to normal as soon as possible.
They cry and say where it hurts and you are aware of it and you can take them to the doctor knowing when the symptoms are getting out of your control but still within time frame to act and fix the situation....
We do the best we can....
The past 2 weeks have been a nightmare I dont wish on anyone. Gabby got sick...
A simple fever that first we thought it was because her molars were giving her problems.... then we though.. oh well its winter its probably another ear infection ( as she gets them almost every single winter)
but the fevers were constant and she barely was eating or drinking...
we took her to the doctor and she check for strep...
negative...
Gabby where does it hurts.. ??? is it your belly?... is it your head?? your ears?? your throat??
Gabby cant speak... and even when she uses her device to communicate, body parts are not her forte... she still has problems naming body parts and understanding pain.
so where does it hurts??? how does it hurts???
Tons of questions and no answers....
until we landed on the ER because she couldnt breath...
I was loosing my kid.... right in front of my eyes my daughter was struggling to catch her breath... her skin was beyond pale...
she had to be transferred to a better hospital and hooked on better machines to help her get the precious oxygen her body wasnt getting on its own....
Dear God!!! i prayed for a miracle... I posted it on all my support groups and ask for prayers...
it was all out of my hands and into God and the doctors to get me back my girl
Doctors coming in and out of her room all the time every hour and taking blood... getting IV fluids and antibiotics and whatever necessary medication needed to get her better...
going on 3 days with no sleep and no much more than staying by her side.. holding her hand covered in bruises from where needles were poked looking for a good vein ... not much success... she was really dehydrated
and finally a turn for the best.....
my girl is a warrior... and she has tons of people who know her and even those who still havent met her who were sending her prayers and all the best thoughts for her recovery were working....
I got my miracle..... she finally came home.... and
I cant find enough words to say THANK YOU for another chance....
