Sick

Since this blog is basically my record of all things for the kids, I wanted to post this even though it's a bit in the past.  Before we left on vacation, Hannah came down with a fairly high fever and sore throat.  I feared it was strep throat, so we took her to the doctor to find out that she had a form of hand, foot, and mouth disease minus the traditional rash.  She was all right when she was on motrin and tylenol, but I could tell as soon as it wore off.  She actually laid down and took a nap 2 days in a row.  The second day, she woke up and couldn't breathe which led to a trip to the ER via ambulance.  Thankfully, she just had a severe sore throat and a fever of 104 which came down after more meds.  Her breathing cleared up after a steroid shot.  Very scary but she recovered quickly and was back to herself in no time.  A week later, Jack came down with the same illness but to a lesser degree thankfully.
