Princess Mermaid Wiggy has been sick for weeks, with something or another. This really is a tough time of year for this girl. We have been to the doctor once a week for the last 3-4 weeks. (Too bad the doctor office doesn't offer a frequent flyer award.)
Anyways, last week's latest adventure was something we haven't tackled before, so it threw us for a loop. Hives...all over her body.
The second morning she woke up with even more hives I took her into the doctor. They gave her an antibiotic because they believed she had a possible sinus infection but not sure what exactly caused the hives. Thankfully after four days they were completely gone.
Little Miss Wiggy was a trooper thought. She snuggled on the couch and she stayed off her feet.
That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....
So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
