How was your weekend?

This weekend was one of the more scary times of my life. Claire was diagnosed with a sever bladder infection that had made its way into her kidneys. I knew something wasn't right when her Doctor was waiting in our room for her to return from getting a urine sample. He said he wanted us to go to TX Children's Hospital immediately for more testing. Claire has never been sick before and to watch her in such misery was almost unbearable. She spent most of her weekend in the hospital crouched up next to Sheila, moaning in discomfort. They hit her with some strong IV antibiotics and a steady doses of Motrin and Tylenol. She would show signs of improvement and then her fever would come back. It was two days of ups and downs. Through this whole ordeal, I can assure you of one thing. There is nothing as frightening as watching your little girl walking through the halls of a Children's hospital, toting her IV pole and repeating how all she wants is to go home. I hope we NEVER have to experience that again.
