Major mother's guilt attack

Sudha was coming down with a mild fever after Sunday. The ideal thing would have been for me to keep her home. But I had to be in office for positioning. So we sent her off to daycare on monday with some tylenol. She seemed fine and not uncomfortable, so we figured it was just the molars bothering her. I did go midday to give her some more tylenol.

The minute I stepped back into office, the daycare called. She was running a 102.6 temperature. Poor baby. Guru picked her up and also stayed home with her on tuesday. I was torn with guilt by not being able to be with her. At least, there were tons of things going on at work and I wasn't wasting my time away there.

She has an ear infection, completely blocked nose with sinus and a fever caused by the ear infection. The Dr told us that the fever ought to be gone by Thursday. Tuesday evening and she seems fine, the fever coming back at longer intervals and not so severe as before.
