Back to School

Dana has been out of school since Thursday due high temperature. She was running a fever. She had a fever up to 102 degrees farenheit.

Went to Walmart and bought a thermometer, Children's Acetaminophen, Children's Ibuprofen and orange juice.

After taking her temperature,  i alternated between the Tylenol (acetaminophen) and the Ibufrofen every 4 hours and also encouraged her to drink water or her preference, orange juice.

We did that all throughout the day on Thursday and her tempeture was lowered to the 90's.

however, we had another fever spike at 11pm.  That  was when I sponged her with lukewarm water and wore her light  fabric clothes with a light blanket. She was shivering her skin off.

Monitored her all night  long and she was better  on Friday.

Friday was when she started taking her temp by her self  every minute and showing me the result every minute!

She was not too excited to go to school today  but we have to get educated!  Amen.
