Easter Fevers
Well...we had planned on going to Indianapolis for Easter but didn't make it. After Landon's haircut on Thursday, he just wasn't himself and we knew it wasn't the new "do". We ran a few errands and I sat in the back with him because he was really unhappy. I placed my head on his forehead and thought he felt warm. We got home and had a fever of 102.5. We gave him some Tylenol, but just couldn't get it past 102. It got up to 104.8 on Thurday evening and called a helpline through St. Vincent's and they gave us some advice. We dealt with this up and down fever ranging from 102 to 105.1 Thursday, Friday and then Saturday morning called his doctor and got an appointment that morning. It was packed...something was going around. She checked him out and he was given a throat culture (spell?)to rule out Strep Throat. It was decided after a negative strep test that he just has viral pheringitis. And as well all know, viral means there is nothing that can be done ...
