My little girl is in the hospital again

[katiebug840204]

So Khloe was put back in the hospital Monday night.  I took her to the dr on Sunday and she had a ear infection and tonsilitis.  Monday she stayed out of school and she started complaining about her back hurting her.  She pointed to her kidneys and I immediatly called the dr office.  They finally got her in and did some blood work and urine.  Her temp went from 104.4 to 105.8 in like 10 minutes.  When they saw that and what her CBC was(33,000) they immediatly sent us to the hospital with admitting papers.  Once here they had to stick her 3 times to get an IV going cause her veins kept rolling.  Then Tuesday night the catheter in her arm bent and they had to redo the IV.  Finally today we found out that the cultures they did showed she has E-coli.  Which is what caused the kidney infection probably.  She has brusies up and down her arms from where they have stuck her so many times.

She was in the hospital for the same thing a year and a half ago.  She wasn't as bad as this time tho.  She was only in there for 3 days and 3 nights that time.  This time it looks like she will be here until Saturday which means it will be 5 nights and 5 days.  I can't wait for her to be able to go home!  She is becoming very demanding and getting upset about everything.  I know she is just getting frustrated and is ready to go home but damn!
