Hug your babies UPDATE

[mamaalysson]

And a send a good thought or two if you can. Our neighbor and good friend's 4-year-old is in the hospital and being tested for meningitis. The girls were just playing together on Monday while I worried to her mom about DD's tummy issues. Less than 24 hours later and she was sicker than sick with a terrible ear infection. Now she's in the hospital. Please keep them in your thoughts.

Update: it is NOT meningitis, but she is still a very sick little girl. Apparently her ear infection spread to the bones behind her ears and caused blood clots in the veins around her brain. They cleared the blood clots and not they are working on the infection. She has a long road, but will hopefully recover fully. I had no idea ear infections could be that serious or turn that badly. Thank you all for your good thoughts. I just wish we could make this even a little better for our friends some how.

Many thoughts and prayers for them. Meningitis seems to be a real problem in our state right now.

I hope it was negative, what an awful experience.

Oh no I'm glad it's not meningitis but how scary. I had no idea ear infection could do that, something else to add to my paranoid mom list. Prayers and good thoughts for a full recovery.
