"play a game" w/ her.......give her a straw and have her count how many drops of water (or whatever) she can get in mommy and daddy's mouth.......but she has to agree to let you try w/ her also. even tiny bits of fluid are better than none. also......use the "bobbing for apples" idea. get a mixing bowl and put apple slices (or something she likes) and let her put her face and mouth in to get it out. and try letting her put a drop of food coloring (it's tasteless) in her water and then sipping it. allow her to use an "adult" cup of plain water even if she spills some on herself. just some ideas. i will pray something works and that the virus is gone soon. the Lord be w/ you....... hi Martha Maire. i have prayed for you earnestly over the last weeks. thank you for sharing online so that i can pray more specifically for you. about getting Selah to drink…….

If we put anything in a soda can for Madison, even just water, she thinks it is a great treat. We are all praying for you and your family up here in Maine. Do you guys drink soda?

If she's not drinking or peeing, she's probably dehydrated. My suggestion is to call the doctor's this morning & get their advice. My prayers are with you, my friend. Keep holding on...God is working. I wish I was there to help....in the meantime...here's a big hug <> :) Love you, Dana No ideas on how to get her to drink, but I’m sure you are aware of how fast little kids can dehydrate.

If she won't take popcicles or jello, I don't know what else to try. Have they called the Dr? The most important thing is that the baby has 1 pee pee diaper every 8 hours. If not, they should take it to the Dr ASAP. Hope the baby gets better soon! Jess Jessica has twins as old as Selah and this is what she is saying.

No matter what the doctors tell you, you've trusted God to do His thing. I'm so glad you keep us all updated so that we can see God working in your life, and see your faith (and the faith of everyone praying) in action. When you get a little down, listen to the song "Mighty To Save". I especially love the chorus; Savior, He can move the mountain My God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save Forever, Author of Salvation He rose and conquered the grave Jesus conquered the grave And whenever satan tries to get ahold of you, remember we all love you guys and are standing with you against your enemy's attacks!

Savior, He can move the mountain
My God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save
Forever, Author of Salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
