My husband and I are away for our trip to celebrate our 19 years of being together as a couple. We arrive from our trip in the middle of the night, and the children happen to be staying with our family. I sneak in beside my daughter and fall asleep beside her, and within a few minutes of snuggling close to her, I notice she is shivering. Sounds came out of her that I had never heard before, not e
