Hospital Admission FEVER

Colleen was admitted this afternoon. She woke up with a small runny nose, but otherwise was fine. She had a sudden fever right after lunch of 102 axil, ten minutes later it was 102.8. We got to the ER at 2:30 and her fever was 105 oral. She has a high white blood cell count so an infection is likely. Her chest xray showed something unusal in the lower right lung, may be pneumonia. She is getting high doses of antibiotics. The hospital has become just a usual part of her life. She does not complain, she is TOO sweet. One minute she was eating her lunch, then she says I want to take a nap and she is burning up. Wow.
