A rough day

We had a little bit of a scare today. We woke up this morning and Carson had close to a 104 degree fever. He was very lethargic and would not eat or drink anything. We took him to Children's Mercy South urgent care. The nurses and drs took very good care of us. We actually had one who shared her experience with us, she lost her little one less then a year ago at 3 weeks of age, he had a rare genetic syndrome called Door syndrome. To learn more about this please visit their web site www.colinsugarbears.com. (I do not think she would mind me passing this info along) It turns out Carson just has some 'normal' child sickness. He has an ear infection in his right ear and a strep infection on his tush. We gave him some mortin in the hospital and he perked up, he did eat his bottle, cereal and meds there also. After his fever went down, we came home with a prescription for amoxicillin. Carson had a pretty crabby afternoon and evening, I think his tush hurts. He has finally calmed down a little tonight after eating like a pig!!! We are headed to bed shortly and hope to have a much better day tomorrow.

Thanks for Praying!!!
