...when your kid is sick. And you feel so helpless because they can't tell you what's going on yet. I take it for granted because he never gets sick. The only other time he's actually been sick was this random fever that ended in a seizure and then went away. At first we thought it was his egg allergies getting worse, then the fever hit. And kept going up. Doctor says it's stomach flu (thank goodness) and it's going around bad. Poor kid can't eat anything. At least the tylenol is staying down today so his fever is lower.
I hate that stomach flu mimicks so many crappy diseases like west nile virus, appendicitis, and meningitis. It makes it next to impossible to not be a paranoid parent.Labels: Parenting
