Brynn's Hospital Visit




Brynn picked up a stomach bug and was sick all day Monday. She was still throwing up at 8pm when I called the doctor. Her blood sugars were holding steady at 200 but she wasn't keeping fluids down and hadn't gone to the bathroom in 9 hours. We headed over to Sacred Heart Pediatric ER. We were admitted because her ketones were very high and she didn't have any insulin to break down the sugars. They started her on IV fluids and she ate some yogurt and a popsicle. We were hoping to go home Tuesday but she developed a fever so we had to stay another night. By Wednesday afternoon she seemed to have her spirit back and running through the halls of the "doctor's house." She is slowly but surely returning to herself. The little bug hit her pretty hard. But she is our super trooper!
