48 hours…
…and we are home again.
Ivy is tucked up in her own bed as I type.
Is she 100%?
No - but I am coming to the realisation that maybe she will never be.
Here’s to;
a new antibiotic. Keflex, our new wonderdrug (fingers crossed).
At least four weeks before she crashes again.
Time for her to play.
Time for her to laugh.
A hot shower and a decent cup of tea.
Thank you all of you for caring about us. It keeps me buoyed and keeps me sane.
Onwards and Upwards as they say.












I am breathing a huge sigh of relief for all of you.
Welcome home!
Enjoy your hot shower, your tea, and the laughs.
Keflex is what my kids used to get for ear infections and stuff. Works well. Hope Ivy does okay on it. I’m so glad to hear you’re both home again. Lots of TLC now for both of you. (((((Ivy))))) (((((Tiff))))) (((rest of family))).
Now get some sleep and we”ll “see” you tomorrow.
Cheers to all that stuff too. Raising my cup of tea right now as I type.
It’s late where you are, as I write this. I hope you’re sleeping, and resting. Really resting. And I hope Ivy is sleeping and resting, as well. And when you wake, in the morning, I hope the new day finds you and Ivy feeling better, and refreshed and ready to face whatever comes next. Meanwhile, prayers are being said on her behalf. And yours.
Welcome home!
So glad to hear she’s home safe and sound, and you are too!

To Ivy:
Welcome back, little Ivy! Oh how I wish they could just kiss it and make it better for good. How i wish I could be there for your mama and give her the hugs she so deserves for being so strong and such a good mommy through all of this. I am glad they found a new med for you, and I really hope it keeps you happy giggly playing this winter. I will keep praying for you, little one!
To Tiff:
You are amazing. I wish for you that you have a normal mommy life for awhile, a rest, a holiday from all the worries. I hope you stay healthy through all that you are going through (yes the part where you are eating little and drinking even littler worries me). I admire your strength. i have always called you supermom and I really look up to you as a mom and as a friend.
Here’s to the new positives! since it is still morning here, I’ll raise my cuppa coffee!
No place like home.
So so glad that you’re home!
And I really hope that this new AB is the wonder drug for you, and that there’ll be more than 4 weeks of play and fun! She deserves a break from this.
Wonderful to hear! I am picturing Ivy with her sungalsses and hat on wanting to go to the beach! How cute that image is!
Welcome home.
Huge hugs to all your family.
Oh Tiff-
I didn’t keep up. What happened? I need to go back and read some more but clinic is running away with me and I just wanted to say Welcome Home. It must feel good.
I’ll pray for you.

Welcome home.. xxx
Tiff, Im so pleased that you’re home. I am praying the new antibiotic does the trick. Lots of love to you and Ivy and the rest of the gang. xoxoxoxo
((hugs)) and welcome home
Glad you’re home and that Ivy’s doing better…
Gosh so much happens with your poor Ivy. I was away for the long weekend and didn’t see what was going on for a few days and you have been in and out of hospital again. (Couldn’t believe the paed cancelled your appt on Friday!)
I hope the new medications work and Ivy can play and laugh very soon.
I’m so glad you are home!! Here’s to 4 weeks!! And to the dreams of more!!
My thoughts are with you all!!
Sleep well. Sleep hard. Sleep deep.
Hugs to you all.
So very, very relieved that you are back home — your triumph here puts joy in my heart as I wage the war of pestilence in my own home this week
