More Sickness

Camden has not been sick much this winter, but wow, this week has been a doozy! We woke up yesterday morning to a 103.7 fever. I knew that on Day 5 of the flu, he should be getting better. I called Dr. Jackie and she wanted to see him.

Waiting to see Dr. Jackie

 Sure enough, he has pneumonia. Poor thing! She prescribed an antibiotic which just happens to be the same color as the Tamiflu(that made him throw up). Yikes! I knew that wasn't going to work, so I added a little red food coloring to make it pink. He still has a huge meltdown over taking it, but this evening, I outsmarted him by mixing it with some chocolate pudding.

I can't tell you how long it has been since he has fallen asleep on one of us.

I can't tell you how thankful I was this morning at 3:00 a.m. to put my hand on his forehead and it felt cool. Praise the Lord! I tried to go back to sleep and just kept thanking God for healing our sweet baby. He has been pretty miserable for almost a week and it has been so hard feeling helpless. When I left his room this morning to go back to bed, I got a glimpse of the true Camden. I said, "Night-night, precious boy." He said, "No call me that. Call me ladybug."Love him!

(He is also thrilled that he no longer has flat poop-that is what he called diarrhea). TMI-I know, but it cracked us up!
