Saddest thing ever

Up until now we've been blessed with Emry's good health. Thursday, she wasn't herself and this lead to a fever Friday morning. I took the day off work to take care of my poor baby. She saw the doctor that morning and the doc said it was just a virus...not much we could do. It broke my heart to see her so lethargic and uncomfortable. On Saturday, she developed a cough that sounded like a barking seal. Every cough was followed by whimpers. So sad! We thought about taking her to urgent care but after speaking with a nurse we tried a few home remedies that she recommended. They sort of worked so we decided to see how things went overnight. After three nights of poor sleep for both Emry and us, her fever broke and she was fever less this morning. She's still has a little cough and isn't quite herself but she's improved. Unfortunately, my dad and step-mom were visiting from Minnesota so they didn't get to experience their granddaughter at her best. This was literally the most heartbreaking experience Steve and I have ever witnessed so we're praying that Emry has good health soon and for a LONG time.
