I Spoke Too Soon

*ouch*

Well, just yesterday I was bragging about how good Rubi is when she's sick and it turned around and bit in the you know what. Last night we had to take Rubi to the emergency room with a temperature of 103.1. She was acting just like her normal self until they had to start an IV. Talk about traumatic - for her and for mommy and daddy!
Turns out that she has a urinary tract infection. We now have to take her to a pediatric urologist to see if they can figure out exactly why she got the infection. Appartently some babies are born with a problem that causes this problem and they have to be on antibiotics for 2-4 YEARS. Yes, I said years. Please pray that Rubi is not one of those children and this was just a freak incidence!
Anyway, we are home now and Rubi is pretty much back to her old, cheerful self - occasionally she has a flashback and starts crying but that's not anything that mommy and daddy can't deal with.

"Time to go home - yay!"
