Sick Boy...

A little Logan update. The poor boy is sick. Again. It started 2 Fridays ago. He had diarrhea like nobody's business. He had it most of the weekend and the beginning of the following week, which culminated with him throwing up for the first time ever Tuesday night. That was enough to make me put my trip to Vegas on Thursday with Savannah and Liz on hold, but when Logan seemed to have radically improved, we went anyways.

Then Saturday night, we seemingly infected everyone at our cousin's house that we stayed at. 5 of the 9 of us in the house got the insane diarrhea and throwing up thing (I avoided it...since I don't throw up EVER...but Logan did again). So I felt awful for getting everyone sick AND I felt awful for my poor little guy having to go through it AGAIN. So we came home Sunday night and Logan just took it easy for a few days. And then yesterday (Wednesday) he got hit pretty hard again.


Not only was the diarrhea persisting, but the poor kid had a temperature of 103.5. It didn't go down below 100 all night with the help of Motrin or Tylenol, so I called the doctor this morning. Turns out he has an ear infection along with whatever is causing the diarrhea. So he's on antibiotics for the ear infection and we're just waiting on a stool sample to figure out the nearly 2-week diarrhea problem. Joy!!!!

Poor guy! That is the worst. Kaden caught something like that the last time we went to Utah. No diarrhea but he threw up every other day for about two weeks. We passed it on to a few people too since we kept thinking he was better everytime he went a day without throwing up. I have been hearing a lot about people throwing up lately (my sister Maria's family, some people here, another blog I read). So hopefully he has nothing more serious than what is going around.
