Well, it figures. I make a whiny post, so of course things got worse.
Fox has been running a high fever. He's sad and miserable and I'm exhausted. He woke crying and shaking and all he would say is "I'm so cold!" It's taken a warm bath, a dose of Tylenol that he promptly projectile vomited along with what little fluid I could get down him, and another warm bath to finally give him some relief. He's still running a fever of 102.5 F, but that is a big improvement over the 104 degrees he was registering earlier.
I'm gonna go carry him to bed now. I think about our ancestors (ancestresses?) who lost children to illness so often and I wonder how they survived it. At least I know we can always head for the emergency room.
Please let him get some relief now...
