Trip to the ER

Well we made it home on Sunday in 6.5 hours including stops. Just thought everyone would like to know that first off.

Last night Kjerstin came up to our room before midnight and had a fever and wanted to sleep with us. She did for a little while then I brought her back to her bed. Sometime after that around 3 am she came up stairs again needing help getting her jammies back on. She had diarrhea. By 4:30 am she puked all over our bedroom floor.

The rest of the day she was fine but had a temp and one bout of diarrhea. Kehan and Ashlyn also had temps. I thought we were going to have around of the flu. Throughout the day I couldn't really get their temps down below 100 degrees. Around 5pm Kehan spiked to 104.1 I gave him more motrin and 15 min later it was up at 104.6! So Kehan and I took a trip to Fosston to the ER. His doctor was also thankfully on call and at the hospital already due to someone else being brought in. It turns out he has tonsilitis! Our doctor said to check the other kids' throats and if they were red too to start them on the antibiotics he gave me for Kehan and call him in the morning to call in the other two prescriptions. Well they all have it! I am not sure where they picked up on our trip to Wisconsin but everyone who saw us beware of the infection! They are all peacefully sleeping now and hopefully their fevers will be controlable tomorrow!
