My niece is sick?

Question: My nephew started being sick on Friday of last week. But now my niece is getting sick. Right now she's running a 102 temp, she's beat red, and she has little bumps all over her face. The mono is going around here in Indiana. 3 kids that I use to watch has it now, so they are being watched by their grandma. My nephew has imenioa(sp?) But he didn't get little bumps on his face. He just had a fever of a 103.

I don't know what to do. I'm the babysitter of her and I have her 5 days a week. I've been giving all the kids either Motrin, Dimetapp, or Children's Tylenol. I watch 4 kids, since the other 3 are really sick. But they've all be exposed to the other 3 kids with Mono.

I've been giving them juice and I'm trying to get them to craft and arts or watch movies so they don't do much play to make their temps raise again.

I don't know what else to do.

Answers:
I'm not sure what to tell you. First, you ask what to do and my response would be "take them to the Emergency Room." That won't help because you CAN'T take them and even if you could, the doctors around your area don't care and won't help you. Since that's the case, I'd say just wait it out and do what you're doing. You only have two choices...doctor or no doctor.
