Same song, second verse

Sorry to not post a follow up. The Wednesday after I posted that (which may even have been the very next day), Tray called me at work to say that Penny had woken up from her nap with a 103 fever. Since she'd been on the antibiotics for a couple days, we didn't think that should be happening. I called the nurse and they said to bring her on in. The doctor who was there was not Penny's normal doctor, but he was very cool; Penny was the last patient of the day and he and his nurse stayed way after 5 treating her. They upped the dose of the antibiotic and started her on some nasal treatments for a sinus infection. After that her fever came on down and was gone by Friday. We were able to go to the pumpkin patch on Saturday and the library Halloween program that night. She's been back at school this week and the lymph node has come on down. However, another started up in her armpit. She had a follow up appointment on Tuesday of this week, and her regular doctor was very encouraged at her progress. We went trick-or-treating Wednesday with her friend Ally and had a lot of fun. But then last night she started having an all-over rash and another fever (101). So, back to the doctor we go today.  It's probably viral since she's still on the antibiotics, but with everything else I feel like she needs to be checked out.
