Update

McKenna is back home now.  She was admitted to the hospital last Friday after waking with a high fever.  Doctors found a mild case of pneumonia and were very concerned about the unexplained limping and loss of muscle strenth.  Our little trooper had a rough weekend in the hospital and went through many, many tests.  They ultimately discharged her once her fever was gone and her vitals were stable but we still have no answers as to why she is limping and has such decreased strength.  We spent the day today at the neurologist's office doing more tests and she is now home connected to all kinds of wires for a 48 hour brain wave study monitoring for seizures.  My poor little girl has been through so much and we are just hoping there is an answer soon.

We appreciate everyone's thoughts, messages of encouragement and support.  It is so nice to have McKenna home.  I would love nothing more than to be blogging about the crazy antics my toddlers got into today.  Hopefully I will be doing that again soon.
