Remember when Nadia spiked a temp 2 days ago? The cause might have been the bacteria viridans streptococci, but they don’t know yet for sure. She is on special antibiotics for it just in case. We will now more soon (maybe a few days) since it takes time to grow these things in a petri dish.
For someone with a functioning immune system, this bacteria is nothing to worry about. For someone without an immune system, it could become serious. Thankfully our doctors are on top of it!
The specific antibiotic they are using to fight this bacteria gave Nadia a slight rash near the end of the drug infusion. Nothing Benedryl can’t fix! Nadia is acting like a normal 2.5 yr old. Busy as can be. 🙂

Nadia dancing without IVy! There was about 2 hours today where she did not need IVy to administer drugs and fluids, so she got to taste freedom!
During the day, we turn our bed into a Chaise Lounge 😉 This saves space in the small room, and provides an extra seat. Yesterday mommy and daddy watched a TV show together (first on in weeks!) while Nadia slept.
Photobooth style!
Can anyone tell us what was going through Nadia’s head in this series?
