These past 7 weeks since Olivia has been with us has been more excitement than anyone needs in such a short amount of time. She has been hospitalized not one, but TWO times. The first was due to a fever caused by enterovirus, and warranted a 2 night stay, a spinal tap, blood workup, IV antibiotics, and lots and lots of nighttime interruptions from nurses. The second was due to an infection in the blood due to an unknown bacteria, and warranted a 7 night stay, spinal tap, blood workup, 3 IV (it started leaking twice and had to be replaced both times), 14 rounds of Rocephin (a very very strong antibiotic), and many more nighttime interruptions.
I have tried to assure her that she doesn't need to give us this "excitement" every three weeks, and that we would really like to be able to settle into a good pattern for a long period of time. Hopefully she understood what I was saying ;)
