First Fever

Miss Vivian had her first fever yesterday, Nov 24. It read 101 under her armpit, so an internal reading would be at least 1-2 deg higher. She has a cold - her nose is stuffy and snotty, and her voice is hoarse. Even though she felt really hot last night, she was in great spirits.

Tonight, she was crying and screaming- you could tell she was really miserable, but had no fever. In fact, when she woke from dozing, she felt really cool to the touch - too cool. Luckily, nursing solves all problems.
