Sick for trick or treat :(

So, worlds worst parent over here. My 2 year old has been fussy lately (past week or so) and started running a low grade fever on Saturday. Didn't think much of it, Motrin and off to bed. Fussy on Sunday, feverish but couldn't find the thermometer. Finally decided maybe something was up, and asked grandma to deliver a new thermometer at 11pm. Come to find her fever is 104.5!! That's like in the severely dangerous range :( Monday trip to the doctor reveals double ear infection and possible throat infection. She is sleeping like crap, schedule totally thrown off and tonight is truck or treat. By then she should have her third dose of antibiotics in and hopefully can get some Motrin in her because I want to let her enjoy trick or treat. What would you do? Let her go out if she seems up to it?

Kids can bounce back quickly. See how she feels and go by that. Keep it short and early to bed.

@MakingCents that would be perfect if she seems up to it.
