Well we reluctantly had Bennie's birthday party yesterday. Thursday evening we noticed that Bennie was running a temp. So I checked again Friday morning and he still had a temp so I couldn't send him to school. Of course I was alternating Motrin with Tylenol and every time I would forget to give him his meds on the four hour mark his temp would still be pretty high. So any way Friday night as I was decorating for the party Bennie wakes up at about 10pm and acts like he's going to be sick. He never got sick but I took his temp and it was 104 and I couldn't give him more meds because it wasn't time yet. So I gave him a cool bath. After about 5 mins in the bath I took it again while he was still in the bath and it was up over 104 and still going up so we took him to the ER. The Doc. there treated me like a complete fool and I was over reacting and blah blah blah... we won't get too detailed about that but he was not nice.... So Saturday morning comes and he still has a bit of a temp but is acting fine. I made him take a nap before the party and stuff... Well he did fine all through the party( a little whiny but not too bad) But about 6:30 he really started feeling badly. He fell asleep at about 7:45 and he was burning up... Poor little guy.
We've all been ill the last week or so... it seems like as soon as one gets over something the next one gets it and then the first person gets something new... it's so tiring.
But I guess overall he had a pretty good party.
