On the road to recovery...

The flu is coming to an end...THANK GOODNESS! After a long long day on Friday, we discovered that we didn't need to go and have a chest x-ray. We paged the doctor early Friday morning and she old us to meet her at her office before we head down to Children’s...Sure enough, Sams flu was trying to escape through his ears and that is what was causing his incredible irritability on Thursday night, Friday. She said that the ear infection set in over a really really short period of time, seeing as though she just checked them the day before. We got some antibiotics and we were off. Sam has been a trooper in taking all of him medicines recently. We still have to strap him down for him to swallow, but he doesn't gag it up anymore. We've also fell in love all over again with Benedryl. It just knocks him out and makes him sleep. He slept last night from 7:45 until 5:00 this morning! A FIRST in a long time for little Sambo. A well rested happy baby makes for some well rested relieved mommy and daddy. Let’s hope that we are now on the road to recovery.
