Earlier this week, Ladybug got pretty sick. She had been fighting an urinary tract infection for a couple of days and then took a sudden turn for the worse and ended up in the hospital. Here is the short version: she was given an antibiotic shot and then threw up (we believe from the trauma) and got herself admitted into the hospital (up until she threw up they were talking about discharging her). They put in her IV. It was horrible. It took them 2 tries and 45 minutes and she was very upset that they were digging around in her veins! The hospital we were at is not set up for pediatrics so she got to ride in an ambulance to the Children's Hospital (an hour and a half away)! At this point it is 1am the next day! She spent all day Wednesday in the hospital as was released on Thursday around 11 am! She is doing much better and almost back to normal!
When I called my dad in Minnesota Wednesday morning to tell him what happened he told me they were trying to get from their little town to Cloquet to some family members who were flooded. This is the town where I grew up! I have never seen anything like this there. Here are some pictures my dad sent.
