My wife picked up our oldest grandaughter, (she's 8), early from school yesterday because of a severe headache. She started feeling very nauseated so, my daughter spent the night at our house with her. At about 4:00am this morning she was vomiting severly and was extremely sensitive to lights in the room.

We took her to the Emergency Room and they performed a spinal tap. Results so far have shown elevated white cell count. The Dr.'s believe it is viral meningitis but, they are treating for bacterial meningitis as well. She was just transferred to a private room.

All your prayers are greatly needed and appreciated.

Paul

Thank ya'll so much for the thoughts and prayers. Tiani is doing better. Headache is gone and she has stopped throwing up. The Dr.'s have given her one round of antibiotics (rocephin). We should have test results back tomorrow. She is sleeping well right now.

Good News!! The test results are back and it is not bacterial meningitis, just viral. Tiani may get to come home this afternoon.
Our family deeply appreciates your kind thoughts and prayers.

Having a 7yo girl myself my heart was heavy when I read this. I sent a few words to THE MAN upstairs asking for a full and speedy recovery.

Tiani is home with us sound asleep & doing much, much better.

Thanks again everyone. My daughter read the thread and got tears in her eyes. This forum is truly full of wonderful, caring people.
