Well of course it was the weekend! We had talked with Jessica's mom a few times asking what to do. She said we needed to take her in! What??? we have things to do! :) Scott went to Priesthood session and then we were supposed to have dinner w/Dallas and Candace - this is when we found about about the baby, anyway we had a VERY quick dinner and then headed to ER. We called around to see who had the shortest wait, but decided what the heck just go the Chandler, they are the closest. Great choice! We got right in and I think we were only there a couple of hours. They did blood tests, urine tests, flu tests, mono tests and a few others. All negative. They gave her IV fluids, since she was dehydrated and got her temperature to normal. She seemed and looked so much better. She came home and went to bed - well for a few hours at least and the temperature was back again. She was still really sick on Monday so we took her into the Dr. They had us give her double the dose of Hydrocodone we were giving her. She was also taking Benedryl so she could sleep. Well LONG story short, it took her about 10 days before she got better and actually had a little energy. Eternity was here when she was really bad and later asked " can she stand up yet and can she comb her own hair yet? She would walk like an old lady and moan and groan like she was giving birth. We had a good time messing with her. We are glad that she is finally better and I'm sure all the babysitting people are too, since we had to cancel for a week with no notice.
We are even happier that no one else got it. Oh PS, this was her first trip to the ER and she has never had blood taken or had to pee in a cup. She was like there is no way I can pee in that! Welcome to womanhood sweetheart! She is also terrified of needles. It took some coaking, but we accomplished a fear!

Really, what is this? Who wants to
throw up in this?
