Dean sees Bo sick and think he’s fine.  Give him some milk he’ll be ok.  I see Bo sick, lethargic for hours on end, not playing with toys unless they are next to where he is laying and even then that’s if he can keep his eyes open, and think something is seriously wrong.   Dean goes to work leaving me with sick kid again, who throws up all over the crib, again, and the floor, and manages to get some on the rocker next to the crib.   He cries unconsolable for hours this morning.   Fighting the urge to go to the ER I wait til the drs office opens at 9 am.   Bo doesnt stop crying while I try to talk to the receptionist.  She says he needs to come in.  Bo cries, I cry.   I take him to said dr appt to find out he has an ear infection, a stomach virus and fluid is starting to build in his lungs but that she wont order a chest xray since the antibiotic for the ear infection should hopefully cover both the ear and the beginning pneumonia.  if it were up to Dean the kids would never go to the dr since to him they are always fine, for once my worrying paid off and the kid will hopefully recover quickly with some meds.   Dear God please let him recover quickly, I am worn out, sick of throwing up myself or cleaning up others bodily fluids and doing it alone for most of the day.   I so need a day off!!!
