Update on Colesy

I need to get the camera and down load some photos of the past month, but maybe later.

Colesy had her tonsil surgery on the 1st. That was a Tuesday. she came home later that same day, after doing a super job! She came back to the room so bright eyed that I didnt even know she had been put under!

She continued to get better and went to Grammys on Friday where she had a great day and ate and drank a lot. over the weekend however, she stopped. stopped eating, stopped drinking, stopped talking. stopped moving.... So Monday morning, I sent her back with Grammy and then called the doctor when they opened. Rene wanted to see her "right away". And so we got colesy up to DuBois and Rene looked at her and said, "she needs an IV" So, we went to the hospital an dhad an IV for 24 hours. We got discharged in time to get Shelby from school. That night was the school Christmas concert, so we went home, where Colesy slept for 2 hours. We went to the concert, (shelby did a great job!) and then came home. Colesy slept a good 12 hours that night and by Thurday she was taking no meds and Friday she ate pizza for lunch.

Today was her check up and Rene said she looked so good that she never needed to see her again - regarding her tonsils!

We went to Taco Bell for lunch and then got back to school in time for recess. at 12:45, 1st-4th grades went on a field trip to a nearby retirement home to sing carols and hand out cards they had made. Becky went along as a driver. Not too long after they left, Colesy and Becky were in the office. Both stood there looking at me. I said "Is everything alright?" Becky said "It is now."
Apparently, Colesy passed out COLD while singing. Becky said it was freaky because her eyes were open the whole time, and she had a creepy little smile on her face. Michelle just scooped her up off the floor and carried her out where there was fresh air.

It was very warm in the home, and she said she was dizzy.

I called Uncle Jim and they said she was fine, to just keep an eye on her.

What a day! We were all able to laugh at the series of events later on.

Off to bed we go. Hopefully tomorrow will be uneventful!
