Keleigh is really sick...:(

Keleigh spiked a fever of 105.1 about 3am this morning and we took her to the emergency room. The er doc said it was just an ear infection, but I've had kids with ear infections and never had they had a fever this high. Fortunately we had an appointment with her regular doctor for a well child visit, her year visit and decided we should keep that 10 am appt. As suspected the greatest pediatrician I've had the pleasure to meet told us that we were right no child would spike this high of a temp with a simple ear infection! He looked at her throat and immediately did a strep test...she had had a rash while we were at the hospital...and the er doc looked at her throat! Needless to say Keleigh has strep which has progressed to Scarlet fever! She is a very sick little girl and we are having a real hard time keeping her fever down! So when you say your prayers tonight please think of our little Keleigh and ask for the Lords blessings on her. Our bishop came over and gave her a healing blessing and I do believe in these blessings and I know she is going to get well, it's just she is having to go through so much pain right now and it is so so sad. Pray also that none of the other grandchildren get this!
