The Morning After


It finally happened, and as Britton's pediatrician said, "he did it in grand style." Britton got sick -- and not just a runny nose this time -- but fever, and pain, and grumpiness, and loss of appetite, and all that jazz. He started running his first ever fever the other night, so off to the doctor we went yesterday. His fever was in the 102s due to an ear infection and a viral throat infection. Both were moderate infections, but together made for lots of fever. His fever got up to 104 plus change last night, but armed with Tylenol and Motrin, we got it down, and he has maintained a normal temp w/o meds all morning. Here is a picture of the little (still groggy) patient this morning. I am hoping that we have turned a corner, though, and that he's on the mend.
