Long week...

It's been a long week since our last post.

Tuesday morning, daycare called to let us know Lincoln was running a fever, and had vomited twice.  We went and picked him up, and Brian stayed with him the rest of the day.  Because he had a fever, we needed to keep him home on Wednesday too, so it was my turn.  He was fine all day long...playing and no fever in site.  We thought it was a 24 hour bug, until 6:30 that night when his fever returned, then his dinner returned as well at 11:30 that night.  So, we were home again on Thursday.

Friday, the fever remained...103 degrees, so we called the doctors office, concerned it was a bit more than just a flu bug.  He was still eating and drinking, so we watched him one more day.  Saturday, his fever was 104, so we went to see Dr. Korn.  He has pneumonia!  So, off to the pharmacy for antibiotic we went.

Monday morning, Lincoln had a fever again, so we called the doctor...again.  They reminded me that it could take 48-72 hours for the antibiotic to begin working.  So, again we waited.  The fever subsided, and on Tuesday, he returned to daycare for the first time in a week.  He was a bit tired last night when we picked him up, but otherwise good.

However, today, the call came again - at 4:00.  Unfortunately his fever is back, so we are going back to the doctor tomorrow to see if there is anything else going on.  Wish us luck!

On a good note though, Jackson had physical therapy this morning.  He's made improvement in the past 2 weeks, so there isn't any need for the TOT collar.  This is a huge relief for us!  We need to continue working on his head righting exercises, but hopefully we are closing in on beating Torticollis! 

We'll write more after our doctor appointment tomorrow.

We appreciate any prayers you can offer.  We also ask that you keep Georgia Taylor and the whole Taylor family in your thoughts and prayers.  They need your strength and good thoughts!

Hope everyone has a healthy and safe week.

Love,
Kate, Brian, Lincoln, and Jackson
