Fever

Hope had a fever today of 102.4 F.  She still hasn't gotten over the cold that the other two kids had.  She's coughing up green/yellow sputum and for a while today she was working very hard to breath, and her heart rate was over 200 beats per minute.  It took three hours to get her temp down, and then she started to settle.  It was a rough day.  Right now, she is sleeping peacefully and her temp is normal, and her breathing is steady.  Hopefully I can rest up well, and find the mental energy for this next stage in the journey.
