and we are saying THANKS. Seriously. I feel like hugging my doctor. Those steroids are AMAZING. I can't believe how fast they work. Emily got a double dose yesterday cuz it looked like she was going to pop...and we put her down for her nap MISERABLE and red and purple and SWOLLEN and then we wake her up and the swelling had gone down a lot and the purple was gone and she was just pink everywhere. She is feeling MUCH better already as she is "playing" with her sisters again. PRAISE the Lord for healing her and thank YOU all for praying for us and for Emily!! Now we just need to pray that in 4 days, when we stop the steroids, that the rash doesn't come back. What a crazy week. We are headed to the Dr. again to re-check her (can I just say that that will be EVERY day this week?!) And then we're headed to the ENT to get her ears checked out for tubes. Here is a picture of Emily BEFORE she started turning purple and when she was just a "teeny bit" swollen. Sorry but I won't show you any pics of her when she was really bad.

Praise the Lord...I have been praying all day. I was really worried about our little Emily...Shell that is so scary and I'm so glad you guys took her to the ER right away for the steroids. They are amazing drugs...I just took a test on them :) So glad she is okay - definitely a thanksgiving to remember!!!
