One would have thought that after the craft fair life would have settled a little… NOPE! The next morning Gabriel woke up with a 103.5 temp then eventually hit 104.1 so we took him to the doctor and discovered he had an ear infection. Tuesday morning at 2am he woke up in the middle of the night hot as an ember with a temp of 104.2- this was when I started to get worried. In the midst of calling an on-call doctor about whether or not I needed to take G-man to the ER my husband doubled over and started moaning and crying due to severe chest pain! I may have sort of freaked out on him, "I CANNOT DEAL WITH OR WORRY ABOUT BOTH OF YOU AT THE SAME TIME!!! WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?!?!" He told me (moaned to me) to focus on Gabriel first. Once I was informed by the doctor about our situation I moved on to Christopher. Chris finally decided he needed to go to the ER and since our super sick son was back sound asleep I didn't dare wake him, so I called a family friend to come over. Oye. I pray you'll had a LESS eventful first part of the week!

ReplyDeleteThey are doing better. Hopefully ear infections do become a pattern for this little guy.

ReplyDeleteHe got an ulcer of all things! He's still on the mend. We're starting to research alternative medications (i.e. essential oils) for some of his needs.
ReplyDeleteSuper scary- wish I was one of those mamas who could keep her cool when it feels like everything is crumbling… haha Thanks for the prayers!
