So let the truth be told I am not a fan of doctor's offices or hospitals; However last night we found ourselves in the ER for 5hrs. It started with Kenzie waking up at about 11:30 Throwing up. I must admit that seeing your child(baby) sick and in pain is about the worst feeling I have ever experienced.
After throwing up about 5 times and a helpful conversation with a nurse named Lee we headed for the hospital--- Rachelle drove while I comforted Kenzie as she continued to dry heave and throw up.
We got checked in and placed in our room around midnight. The dr said she may have bladder infection so he wanted a urine sample... that required a catheter(I wanted to cry). The nurse hooked her up and Kenzie did pretty good.
Then nurse came back after some time and said there was protein in her urine. Long story made shorter after: Catheter, Unsuccessful blood draw, ankle blood draw+ I.V. and heel prick the diagnosis was a virus.
After an emotional roller coaster of wanting to cry for Kenzie, Choke the nurses and Chuck Norris Round house the Dr's we left with a new perspective on life. Regardless of what is happening in the world, who's in office or how good or bad our economy is doing...We are grateful and thankful for the simple things in life- Like good health. I guess the ER will do it to ya.
