Ella gets sick

 



Ella has been sick for a little over a week. It started at daycare as most of her illness' likely will. I was called at work and told that Ella's eyes were looking goopy and that I should take her to the doctor's office.
I did that night when i got off of work. I figured it was pink eye because the daycare had posted a letter to the parents of some recent cases. However, the doctor said that although her eyes were very goopy, they were not red so it was probably NOT pink eye.
Well, all that weekend we cared for her eyes by keeping them clean and goop-free. Over the following days, while she was at her grandma's she seemed to be getting better but by the end of the week she got a cold.
Ella has been having a tough time at night with breathing through her stuffy nose. She has also been coughing a lot. I am hoping she is better soon. Hoping we all get better soon since Carl and I are also exhibiting the same symptoms as Ella.
Overall, although Ella is sick she is still in a good mood most of the time. She is a trooper. She even got her 4 month shots the other day. That night she actually had a slight fever but she has been doing great since.
