In sickness and in health

I wrote this one last week - but it seems like it wasn't published.

So the reason for the absence hasn't only been because of our travelling the country - but more Sophias state of health.

She woke up with a 38 on Friday morning (which for her is very high). We decided to go to Vallarta anyways since we could just as well rest there, just with a nicer view.

She ate well the whole day and slept like never before when we finally arrived.
The next morning she woke up with a 36,6 - her normal temperature. So we hoped she was good.

We spent a few hours outside, nothing extravagant. But in the afternoon she got worse.
We got some medicine.
The next day she woke up with an ok temperature 37,5 - high for her, but she seemed fine.
We went outside again, but after a few hours she got worse.

Monday - she woke up with 38, so we were back to square one.
She has refused to eat any solid food the entire weekend.
She was now prescribed an antibiotic.
The car ride home sucked.

She slept 2 out of 4 (it was fast without traffic) the rest screaming.

She was better Tuesday morning but woke up with a horrible rash all over her body - which could either be the virus or the medicine.

Now 5 horrible days are over and we're gonna go to her class - 2 fever free days.

Wish us luck
