DD is sick again
| Mon, 10-31-2011 - 11:29pm |
My 17 month old DD was over Roseola for a week and now she's got Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease! She is underweight for her height and she's been losing weight because she doesn't want to eat (sore throat and now mouth sores). I am sick with a cold so we're all pretty miserable. I just don't know how we are going to get through this week. She is in so much pain and so miserable and I am feeling so crappy I hardly have any energy to look after her. We don't have any family nearby or else I would call in the grandmas!
We'd really appreciate your prayers because her body is so frail, and my DH and I are so physically and emotionally spent, I just don't know how we are going to get through this.

Thanks for all the support. Today, the sores in her mouth are healing a bit so she was able to eat and drink a bit. At one point she insisted on having some juice, but then burst into tears (must have been too acidic.) I'm hoping she just continues to get better from here. I am so wiped!
