Tonya

As you can tell from the subject line, the only time I usually write about this is when Tonya is in the hospital. Well, she was put in the hospital yesterday due to dehydration. She has been suffering from a sore throat and sinus congestion, fever and body aches for over a week now. She thought it was only a sinus infection and the doc called her in some antibiotics. Five days later she still had a fever and began throwing up.

She went to the doctor yesterday and he said she was dehydrated and may have strep. He said even if she did have the flu it was viral and there wasn't a lot of treatment options there. He done a strep culture, urine culture and a flu swab to see if any of these are positive. We don't know anything yet. I will send you another email after the doc comes in.

The entire hospital is full right now so they had to place her in ICU because those were the only beds that were open. As soon as someone goes home she will be placed in a private room. Right now the only way to contact her is her cell phone 613-3486.
