The flu has found us
Amelia continued with her fevers and lethergy, so off to see Dr. nancy we went. When we got there, nurse Tim listened to her, checked out her eyes, ears, nose and throat. they all looked fine. So, the next stop was to check amelia for the flu. Tim said it would take about 10 minutes for the results. Two and a half minutes later it was positive. There is no real treatment for the flu, just treat the symptoms. So we have been encouraging PO intake (drinking fluids...lol), offering different foods she may or probably won't eat, and holding/loving on her alot. Oh, and motrin and tylenol for the fever. She is in OK spirits for 1/3 of the day, down playing and running and laughing. She is a tough little one, our Melia Rose. I hope she is feeling better within a few days, although the average duration time is 7 to 10 days. That's a long time to be sick, especially when you are one!
