Boaz was supposed to have a 9 a.m. appt to get his vaccines that he missed a few weeks back when he was sick at his check up.   He’s been coughing some for a few days and i wondered if I should wait longer to get the vaccines.   So this morning he woke up at 8, which is late for him, and has a yucky runny green mucusy nose and is wheezing.  of course the pediatricians office doesnt answer phones til 9 so I am going to wait to go, call and tell them i dont think he can get vaccines still and hope they can get him a sick visit appt today so if he needs meds he can have them since he’ll need to go to a sitter tomorrow while I have my ob appt. and the person keeping him then will have other kids and I dont want him to get them sick if we can prevent it!    Screws up my whole plan for the day but oh well.   I think Caleb probably should be seen too but he’s acting mostly ok just coughing a lot and tired.   he’s at school today so I’m not pulling him from school until he feels bad enough to need to go to the dr since it might be nothing.    It’s always something around here!  one of us has been sick one week or the next for the last few months, it’s getting annoying and the medical expenses are killing our already low lack of funds due to the car problems.  we just cant seem to get out of this rut.

at least for now Bo is playing ok, he just sounds like he cant breathe!   i keep trying to get him to cough by coughing o see if he will imitate me but he wont so the congestion is just sitting in his chest making it sound horrible.    so we’ll see how the day ends up going.  I am expecting a call from my pcp w/ my lab results sometime today too.  i am anxious to see what the results say.    I see the ob tomorrow and am glad I’m getting an u/s since I dont know how this med or the diabetes has affected him this last week so we’ll see.  He’s not nearly as active as he used to be so that scares me.   so I’m looking forward to that appt for once.
