MONO

Kait has had a very sore throat for the last few days. She was at her Dad's so I didn't know. Her school called me on Monday she had a sore throat to the point that she couldn't swallow. I took her into the doctor and they did blood work and discovered that she has mono. I couldn't believe it. Her Doctor said she wont be able to eat for the next couple of weeks so I went and got tons of fruit to juice for her. I went to GNC and picked up some protien powder to put in her juice. This morning I went to my Dad's and got his smoothie maker. I made her a couple of smoothies with protein powder and a few juiced drinks. I am worried about her losing weight. She is eight and when they weighed her at the doctors she only weighs 45 pounds. She has been laying around all day she went outside a little bit and came in and took a four hour nap. I feel so bad for her. Please pray that she gets well soon. Mono is the worst. I pray she can hang in there during school. The doctor said we should keep her home for the rest of the week if need be, but next week we need to try to get her to go for the whole day. The best part for her is that their new beds will be here tomorrow. She is excited to lay in her new bed and read books! I think she will enjoy that. I will post pictures of their new beds and bedding on Friday!
