Greetings, What is there to jump on here? I personally only take anti-biotics when it is life and death, but then I am allergic to most of them so it is a toss up which is going to kill me. A fever of 105, I would have dumped her in an ice bath and called an ambulance. Drugs do have their place, and yes, I too hope she would give them to her child rather than see the child permanently damaged. Bright Blessings, Kim
