Sickness, 103.6 Fever and Hallucinations

I knew it was coming. Lilly and Allie succumbed to it, and I knew it was only a matter of time before Maya did too. It happened at 1:00 this morning. I heard Maya screaming, "there's a police officer in my room!! There's a police officer in my room!!!!" She sounded frantic, and knowing full well that there were in fact no police officers in her room, I figured she must be dreaming (as I rushed full speed to her room). I got there, and she was wide awake, pointing to the space behind the door (which was mostly closed before I came in) yelling about the police officer. I showed her that the was not anyone there and she calmed down. Slightly. I got into bed with her to calm her down, and she felt about as hot as the sun. She continued talking about the dragons and clouds that were on her ceiling, pointing them out to me when I didn't see them. They weren't there. I figured that she must be hallucinating due to her fever, so I gave her Motrin and Gatorade and stayed with her until she was nearly asleep. The whole time I was in there, she kept telling me about all of the things she was seeing and couldn't believe I couldn't see them. "Right there" she would say and point. I finally started playing along, and things went much more smoothly, plus it was interesting to hear about what she was seeing, at the same time being pretty nervous about her visions. Eventually she cleared up and saw nothing unusual, but it was quite a night. Now the sick kid total is three. I knew it was on it's way.
