Still Not Well
Gabriel is still not feeling well. Yesterday his fever got up to 101, and it was not coming down well with Tylenol. The only place that we could take him on the holiday was Clark County Hospital's Express Care. It's part of the emergency room that is for cases of strep throat, mild flu cases, etc. He was checked out by Dr. Haq and had a chest x-ray. It was determined that he had a cold, and we needed to alternate ibuprofen and Tylenol. We should have known that. Dan took him to his pediatrician today for a follow-up to discover that he had developed a mild ear infection in his right ear overnight. His cold symptoms are getting better. We are managing his fever better with the ibuprofen/Tylenol combo, and his ear infection was caught so quickly that he has felt no effects from it yet. Hopefully, he'll be back to his typical playful self soon. This is a picture of Gabriel at the hospital. They had us put him in a little baby sized hospital gown. I hate to say it, but it was so adorable on him. I just hope that we won't have to see one of those on him again.
