It ain't over til it's over..

Well we arrived in Toronto on Thursday night and we thought we had sent our last post. Jasmine had a fever when we arrived and we were all jet lagged on top of it. We spent all day Friday treating the fever. She also had a cough for the past few days. Flights were getting cancelled in Toronto due to the weather so we weren't sure if we were going to get home on Saturday.  On Saturday morning the fever had subsided and she seemed to be doing better and our flight was on time so we headed for the airport. Just as we got to the airport the flight was canceled and we got in a very long line to rebook. Took a look at Jasmine in the stroller and noticed she was shaking and her color was dark, lips purple. Figured she was spiking a temperature so gave her some Tylenol but she continued to shake and her color wasn't improving. No chance of getting a cab so we called an ambulance who took her to Etobicoke General. Spent the day in Emergency, thinking it was a flu. Stomach became swollen so they offered to keep her overnight. Kept pumping her full of Tylenol and the temperature kept going up. So we are still in hospital and she is now being treated for a Urinary Tract infection. Temperature still climbs up and she had a few more episodes of the shaking and color changes so we are waiting for the antibiotics to do their job. Not sure when we will get home. Thanks for all your comments on the blog. We just had a chance to read them since we couldn't access the site in China. Your comments and wishes overwhelm us and we are so thankful for the support of family and friends and very touched by the comments made by those who know us only a little and wish us the best. Her  first birthday today.  Happy Birthday precious daughter! At least we are together, still the best birthday and the best of all gifts. We love you and will take care of you always.
