Last night Aaaron started acting like he wasn't feeling well. He wasn't his normal happy self and his temp was very erractic. I stressed dosed him and kept a close eye on him during the night. Around 4am he woke up crying (which he never does unless he is sick) and with a temp of 102.9 (which is extremely high for Aaron, he usually runs in the 96's). I gave him some Tylenol and prayed we would make it until 8am when Dr C was open. He was starting to have seizures when I called and was lucky enough to get an appointment right away. I was hoping to see Dr C but he didnt have anything until 9:45a so I chose Dr S and was able to get right in. While I was talking to the phone nurse Aaron had a little seizures and I just knew thaat he was goingto be admitted. I prayed the entire way to the Dr thata he would be ok. I just kept thinking back to the last time he was sick like this, I waited to See Dr C at a later appointment and then ended up needing to call an ambulance. Once he got the the hospital he was in respiratory failure. I just prayed it was happening again. And thankfully it wasn't.
We were also lucky enough to see Dr C instead of Dr S. He has an ear infection and a sinus infection. Dr C also said he had a virus because of the rash on his face and on both arms. Thank goodness his lungs sounded good and his heart rate was fine!! He put him on an antibiotic and will see us in 2 weeks for our next appointment. This sweet little boy amazes me everyday.
