Blurg

Well, today G had to come home from daycare. That boy spiked a temp of 103. They called Dane and he called me asking what to do. I am a calm, laid back person. I don't get upset easily and don't freak out about the kids. This was before gavin. I don't trust that kid. When he gets sick, he sinks fast. I learned my lesson the hard way with his RSV and then his croup. 

I asked Dane take him to the Dr. (I was at work). Maybe I jinxed the kid by saying that he was getting better. Unfortunately, Gavin has two ear infections. The worst part is that he doesn't respond to oral antibiotics anymore. He has to get 3 (PAINFUL) shots of antibiotics over 3 days. He got his first dose today and I will have to take him back tomorrow and Friday for the others. Poor G. He has been through so much. I know that we are still lucky and that he is a lot luckier than other kids (I do work in the Pediatric ICU), but your heart just breaks for the poor little man.  We just need him to stay better until he gets his tubes on 4/21!

Soon, I hope to post more positive things!
