Goofy but...

...currently in the hospital, John that is. He started running a fever this afternoon and we took him to the ER in Columbia. We were rescued from an incompetent surfer boy ER doc by one of the Ped's attendings and so John is doing well, has had all the appropriate tests run, antibiotics on board and now we sit and wait to see what it is. He looks good, he looks amazing and other than being a little overly warm and a bit less energetic than normal you'd never know there was something wrong, but there is. So we wait, did I ever mention that this is how we have grown patience, it is, what little we own, this is how it was wrought and well obviously more is being made.

Without being official, we just recovered from H1N1. Our John started it in our family-with a fever. I wonder if it is the same for your John? Hope the hospital time goes fast and you can get home soon. I read Madeline (I know it's kind of a girl book) to the boys tonight and they couldn't figure out why Madeline got presents for being in the hospital. I reminded them of John and the airplanes and now my boys want to go to the hospital! I told them you have to go through a lot at the hospital to get the "prizes". Then they weren't so sure they still wanted to go to the hospital.

Lol, no somehow the presents wouldn't be worth the trip, but they sure do make it go better. We found a source for planes here and are actually going to start using their purchase to teach John about money when we get back home from vacation that we hopefully get to take. They did check him for flu last night, so if that's it I'm sure they'll catch it, glad you guys are getting better! John's favorite hospital book is Curious George goes to the hospital, I was impressed with how much of it shows stuff he has to go through and yet he loves it.
