After a very healthy last 14 months or so, our boy has his first bad cold/flu. :( And it is a doosie. Poor guy has a fever, a cough that sounds like a sea lion, and profuse liquid coming from his face (eyes/nose/mouth)... I'll let you interpret that one.
Dr. Davidson attempted to administer Tylenol this morning and seems like lil' man wasn't a big fan and quickly returned the favor by throwing up all over momma and the carpet. So we tried again, with a dropper this time and again, returning the favor, he got dada and another room's carpet. Finally the doctor suggested we try getting Fever-all. Never heard of it before but, as she said, "he can't throw that up", since, um, it goes in a different orrafice. Enough said.
Fun day. Our poor lil' man is sort of sleeping finally after a pretty rough Sunday. If you know him, you know he's not a crier, but he cried for over an hour straight today after his nap. And also if you know him, you know he eats and drinks a lot, which he is doing very little of.
If you think of it, please pray for a speedy recovery for our boy. It's crushing his dada and momma to see him like this. Also please pray for us that we can care for him well and not get whatever he has... I'm feeling a little wrecked, but it may just be from all the stress of the day, or as his momma suggested, sympathy pains.

Awww...poor little guy! I had just thought..I wonder why the Davidson's didn't come yesterday to Aida's "high tea" birthday. Now I know.
Dear God, I pray that you will have mercy on Your child, William. We know that You love him even more than his parents do so we trust You...we trust that You will allow the medicines that You created to work in his small body and that You will cause this sickness to pass through him and out him quickly. Amen.
