Carson's first big illness

For about one week Carson had runny nose, congestion and 102 fever. After day 3, I called the doctor. On Wednesday, we took him in. They said it was just a virus, and if it contined through to Friday they would call in an antibiotic. Well, Thursday rolls around and he hadn't peed in 27 hours.....so, the nurse on call insisted we go to Children's ER downtown...so we head downtown.
Wait for 3 hours to get in the room(were there 5 hrs. total) - took urine sample, did ultrasound, etc. and while we were there he peed....woohoo. But we left with absolutely nothing wrong with him.
Friday comes around and Carson's getting sick, not eating anything or even drinking for that matter....wonderful huh? So, we end up back at the doctor's office. He has a double ear infection. Wonderful. This is truly the very first time he's ever had an ear infection or even needed medication for something. He's a very healthy little guy.
So this is where we stand right now. Just praying Maddox can stay well! he's doing great so far.
