And So I Wait...

I'm waiting for Bea to do what she has done the last two nights - approximately 45 minutes after she falls asleep. That's right, the once-a-night puking is back. It's happened the last two nights, so I am expecting it to happen again. I'd rather just wait and then go to bed after, instead of waking up, cleaning it up, starting a load of laundry, and then trying to go back to bed. After it happened last night, I was extremely upset. I started thinking "here we go...AGAIN!" And then I got angry. And then I got upset and started crying. Cursing the world at why my child is NOT well. I started thinking maybe there is really something wrong with her. It doesn't make sense. She got well, just in time for the last round of medication to wear off, and here we are at step one once again. Thank goodness we had bloodwork done last week.

So, Josh called the doctor today to see if we could get the results. She's clear. Nothing to worry about. And the relief that filled us was unbelievable. I mean, really unbelievable. No words. There could really only be one reason for this - the sinus infection is coming back, and if it is, our doctor wants us to see an allergist. In any case, she is going in on Thursday, most likely for an x-ray. I'll let you know how it goes.

I'm exhausted. Here I will wait for about 20 more minutes and I am just praying that I don't hear that horrible sound and have to run in there as fast as I can...
