It started a few days before Christmas when Braeden caught a serious cold. So sick but his spirits were okay so they went to Christmas Eve on Jesse's side of the family. Christmas morning younger brother Deacon woke up with the same snotty, coughing cold. In fact, we almost had to wake them up to open presents.
Somewhere along the line, Braeden became extremely lethargic for two days. Wouldn't even sit up. He received two GI Joe guys for Christmas and Dad found some companions on Craigslist about an hours drive from here. The morning we were to drive down to get them, Braeden started crying that he was too sick to go. Gramma went and when I brought them home (FOUR guys and lots of clothes and ammo), he couldn't even sit up to look at them.
A few days later, Deacon fell asleep while playing on the living room floor. They both continue to drink enough and some days they eat well, some days not too much. And now they actual stomach aches and barfing and of course fevers of 102.
This morning Braeden came knocking ... crying, carrying his barf bucket and asked if he could be in my bed.
And here we are. Watching Chicken Little (which is nothing like the one we used to read).
More later ...
Did they call the doctor? Just wondering if those are common symptoms of the flu going around now. Poor little guys! Hope you don't catch it next.
ReplyDeleteI just read the symptoms on a pediatric website. Little guy refuses medicine, even mixed in with his FAVORITEs. Finally Momma syringed some into a juice box .... he was feeling better in 30 minutes.
DeleteI hope you don't get it!!!
