I Was Going To Do A Whole Entry About

Bin Laden’s death but then decided my blood pressure couldn’t take it. Suffice it to say I think it was a bad move.

In other, closer to home, news…with the exception of last night when he was ill, Adam has slept in his own bed since last Wednesday night! Simon and I just decided it was time. And we were right.

Adam’s illness has been very odd. Threw up Monday night, woke up with a fever Tuesday morning that kept going up despite calpol/nurophen, finally spiking at 103.8, when I called the GP, who had us come up.  His ear is red and his throat was *very* red so he has antibiotics. By the time we got home from the GP, his fever was gone. He went to bed as usual, in his room.  I was settling myself in bed when I heard him wake up and cough, so I went in to him. He was very hot and couldn’t re-settle so I had him on his changing table to  check his temp again when he gagged. I grabbed the vomit bowl just.In.Time!

So we settled him with me. About 30 minutes later he spit up and threw up in my bed, but only hitting one pillow and the bottom sheet. And his PJs. So got him cleaned up and resettled, gave him some Diorlyte, took him back to bed, he crashed.

2am back awake. More dirolyte and then back to sleep by 3. He slept until 8ish and woke up with no fever, no vomiting and has been himself all day.

Weirdest 24 hour bug I’ve ever seen!

Posted in Adam.

  1. Glad it was only 24 hours. What do you do about the antibiotics? Still give him to him for the whole dose?
