Hi families ❤️

I wanted to take a few minutes to check in, because we are seeing a lot of illness right now in our pediatric office , including flu, RSV, COVID, and strep, and in some cases, children are testing positive for more than one at the same time.

I know this season can feel overwhelming and scary as a parent, especially when your child is coughing, miserable, or running high fevers.

Please trust your instincts and have your child evaluated right away if you notice:

Trouble breathing
Persistent or worsening cough
High fevers with a child who looks very unwell
Signs of dehydration (dry lips, not drinking, less urination)

Very imortant ❤️ we also want families to be aware of something we’re seeing more often with influenza A and B: viral myositis, which can cause significant muscle soreness , especially in the legs.

If your child is complaining of body aches, lower extremity pain, or refusing to walk, it’s important to:

• Keep them very well hydrated
• Use ibuprofen (Motrin) for inflammation and pain relief (if appropriate for age)
• Call your pediatrician for guidance or evaluation

We have had children needing emergency care simply due to the severity of pain ( eho h is inflammation of the virus in the muscles, which can can go on cause kidney issues) and dehydration that can accompany the flu, and we want to prevent that whenever possible.

Most of all , please know you are not alone. We are here, we are seeing this every day, and we are happy to help you navigate when it’s something that can be managed at home versus when it needs medical attention.

Sending love and health to all of our families ❤️

I truly feel like the most blessed woman on earth to be the mother of four incredible daughters . They are my greatest gifts and my heart outside my body. ♥️

I also feel profoundly blessed beyond words to care for the thousands of children and families who have trusted myself and our team over the years. Being a pediatrician is not just my career… it is one of the deepest honors of my life.

Every child who walks through our doors becomes a part of my heart in some way. I don’t take lightly the privilege of watching them grow, comforting them when they’re scared, celebrating their milestones, and being a steady presence for their families through every season.

These children are not “just patients” to me , they are like my own in the way I love them, worry for them, and want the very best for them.

Every day in pediatrics is an adventure, full of joy, sadness, milestones, heartbreak, laughter, resilience, and little moments that remind me why I chose this life.

I am endlessly grateful for every child, every parent, every hug, every drawing, every handwritten note, and every reminder that love is at the center of healing.

Thank you to everyone who allows our Serenity Pediatrics team the privledge to care for your precious families. Serenity Pediatrics ❤️’s you all !

Love,
Dr. Alsahlani ❤️

Michigan is currently experiencing one of the highest rates of FLU activity, and we are seeing an unprecedented number of cases here at Serenity Pediatrics.

Flu Clinic Dates:
Friday 1/30: 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM

It is not too late in the season to get your flu shot — even if you have already had the flu. There are multiple strains circulating, and vaccination can still help protect you and your family.

Hapoy New Year 🎉!! As we head into the new year, I wanted to take a moment to check in with our families.

We are seeing a lot of flu and colds right now, and with kids heading back to school after winter break, it is very normal to see more illness, fatigue, big emotions, and exhaustion in children and in parents.

I especially want to speak to the parents and caregivers who walk through our doors tired, worried, and doing their very best. I see you. The early mornings, the missed sleep, the constant juggling all matter and none of it goes unnoticed. You are doing important, meaningful work every single day.

If your child is still adjusting, getting sick, or not quite back into a routine yet, that does not mean you are failing. It means they are human. And so are you.

At Serenity Pediatrics, we are here to support you through this season and beyond with care, patience, and partnership.

Thank you for trusting us with your children.
Please remember to give yourself some grace as we move forward together into this new year. You’ve got this !!!!

Much Love,
♥️ Dr. Alsahlani
