Luckies4me you have my deepest empathy, UTI's are just the most awful thing, that was what my daughter was going through, and at 11, it had to be checked out, the fact it got to your kidneys is not good, you would have been feeling just soooo..bad.

My daughter always has drunk plenty of water, but she is just prone to them, some people are just like some people are prone to colds.

Can anyone tell me if those cranberry pills are safe for children, she is not too keen on the juice?

DRINK, DRINK, DRINK , and maybe you should take something like CITRAVESCENT(SP) drink, it helps to reduce the acid in the urine, but check with your doctor first, so it does not interact with the antibiotics.

Your poor girl, you have been having it real rough lately, with all your worries, etc, maybe its time for a multi-vitamin and a HOLIDAY.
