Saren in the Hospital

This week we had a little adventure with Saren.  After Lucy was so sick last weekend, Saren caught the virus and got sick herself.  She had a really high fever at home (102.4 degrees) on Wednesday morning and so our doctor told us to take her to the emergency room.  Once there, the doctors decided that she would need to stay the night to make sure she didn't get worse.  Turns out that she had the virus known as RSV with a little bit of bronchitis.  Since Saren is so young, and so small, she was at high risk if her symptoms worsened.  She had to get connected to an IV, have oxygen levels monitored, and stay at the hospital for two nights.  Tristan stayed with her the entire time.  While she was at the hospital, Saren was kind of sober, almost like she was bored.  On the second day, when her sister Lucy came to visit she really lit up.  Lucy made her smile and laugh a lot.  Saren really loves watching Lucy and Lucy loves trying to make her smile.  Saren is doing fine now and looks like she is getting over the virus for the most part.  We are so lucky that we have two healthy and beautiful little girls!
