Raven sick and smelling something "stinky"!

Raven, my funny girl, had me get her a chicken salad sandwhich on Monday. She said it was stinky and only took a couple bites. She hasn't had an appetite at all. I even got her milk shakes and those don't taste good to her either. Today she wanted me to make her an egg salad sandwhich so we'll see how that goes! Anyway that night she kept telling her Dad something smelled! The next day she kept saying that all she smelled was that stinky chicken salad! She was smelling her shirt, the blanket, then ME! She couldn't figure out where it was coming from but something smelled! Ya know when your sinus' are messed up and you smell Stinky stuff? I think that's what is happening with her. This morning I had to hear it again. What smells? I'm like, "go brush your teeth!" Then she thought it was Paisley's diaper. She is just the funniest thing when she is sick!

My dear friend Leah was over last night and thought Raven looked really bad. today she was asking me about how much she is drinking because she was worried she might be dehydrated. Especially since her fevers have gotten so high at night and we're on day 11! I called the Dr. and the nurse had me swab the inside of her mouth and said it should be moist like mine. Well it wasn't it was dry! She said to bring her down. Raven has the best Dr. in the world! So of course I got the 50 questions on what they were going to do to her! I was so worried about them admitting her because I can only imagine my princess dealing with all the probing and poking they do in the hospital! I made her drink water all the way down there. The Dr. said she was fine that there was slobber under her tongue and that since she can get up and down on her own she's ok. But 1/2 hour later he called me and said her strep just showed up positive. So that's why her poor throat hurts so bad now. Just now she woke up from a cat nap crying saying she couldn't breath. Her nose is stuffed and it burns to breath. We need to go get those antibiotics and hope they help her feel better. I'm going to have to miss my classes the next 2 days and the only time I can take them again is the end of April. But I need to be here for my girl and Jeff has people out sick at his work so he's the only one there, so kinda hard for him to take off. This too shall pass!
