In no particular order. Sudden hospitalization. Unexpected. I felt she had an infection over the weekend but thought it was just her skin. She had what she said was a pimple on Friday. She didn’t like the pain WHEN SHE BUMPED it. That’s why she came complaining.
Sabbath, she said it oozed AFTER she walked into a wall by mistake.
Yesterday (Sunday) we didn’t do vision therapy exercises as her knee was sore.
Today I phoned the paediatrician’s office to ask for an urgent appointment after I saw she now had swollen up. They said they had a slot for tomorrow 9am. But the office manager was stressed by my description so told the doctor who then squeezed us in for 2pm. By this point, the swelling had now gone to the back of her leg too.
And boom, here we are. Cardiologist for heart issues, blood tests done, swab taken, chest x rays done to check heart size. ECG done. IV antibiotics have begun, ending on Wednesday. Surgery tomorrow.
Every time I try thank God despite my trials, every time I make it my goal to not complain, something else gets thrown at me as if to say, “Now REALLY prove you meant it!”
Lying in hospital in pain-I was meant to do my injection today but got scared I’d pick up an infection from hospital-was not part of my plan for the week. Having surgery was definitely not my daughter’s plan, but here we are anyway! If this is a test, surely I deserve some credits from other trials? Can’t one year be hospital free for ALL of us?
They said I should write a book 
ooh no, praying there’s no surgery for her.
