Update #3

Well, it isn't a urinary tract infection. We are on day 9 of the fever. Last time it lasted exactly this long, and the ninth night was the last. Today the fever seemed to be much lower - in the 102 range instead of 104. That's promising. She was also quite lively this afternoon and even ate half of a quesadilla, which is more than she's eaten almost since the fever began. Tomorrow morning we're leaving to drive to Nashville so I'm quite hopeful that she'll wake up and miraculously be better. That's pretty much what happened last time. I'm going to be hopeful. Isn't that what you are supposed to do on New Year's Eve? Well, actually you are probably supposed to do something fun. Luke and I will be on the couch if you need us :-)
