"I have to go get a bar of soap, because I'm sick."
So you tell me - typical 4 yr old silliness, or is her fever making her delirious?
We've had a month full of fevers. First it was Xander. One day he was 104, then for 2 days he was 101-102, but with no symptoms. Then at 5am one morning when he woke up hungry, I was suprised there were no flames coming off of his body, and checked and he was 107 degrees. Off to the ER we went and a few hours later we left with a UTI diagnosis and a prescription. Two days later we got a call saying that his urine cultures came back and his bacteria wouldn't respond to those meds, so we had to switch. Today is his first day off of antibiotics, and his stomach will be glad to get back to normal. It has not been fun.
Then Saturday, Mikayla started coughing and by bedtime she had a fever. She spent Sunday acting very tired, and then did nothing but eat a little, drink a little, and lay on the recliner all day long yesterday. Last night, Aaric got it. By the way, he never gets sick on the weekends. If some disease is going to take up residence in his body, it does it the night before his return to school. Every single time.
So today, they're both couch potatoes. They say their legs hurt. They cough. They have fevers.
One more day of PBS Kids and I'll go insane.
