I am sure last time I stepped outside it was summer, so why is Mister Owen sick?? It seems wrong that it's over 100 degrees out, but Owen is inside with a nasty cold and fever. Go figure. Yesterday morning he woke up feeling exhausted and I assumed he was tired from playing so hard at the resort and maybe too much sun. Then he woke from his nap with 102 fever.
I called the pediatrician and she had the day off so I saw one of her partners. He was a strange one and said there was nothing wrong.. just to allow Owen to ride it out.
He was awful last night. Gunky, couldn't breath well, fevers off and on, chills, and miserable. If his sats weren't so beautiful, I would have taken him in. We survived and today has been more of the same. He has been playing and super talkative but continues to wipe his nose like it's going to fall off and sounds painfully hoarse.
Carson still hasn't passed his Kidney stone so we returned to urology for a followup. We were a little too anxious to schedule surgery, but it's done. Pre-op testing is tomorrow.. CT scan (to locate the stone), labwork and an EKG. Then he'll go under the knife on Thursday. The doc will put him under, blast the stone and pull out the pieces. Sounds brutal to me, but anything to give the guy some instant relief from the stone.
That is just about all the excitment I can take this week.

Sorry buddy is sick- always such a worry with these kiddos. Maddie just got over the pukey stomach flu/fever combo and I was so stressed out. Being only 3 weeks post-op really worried me.
The resort sure looked fun! Fancy :) Glad you're enjoying summer, you have lots coming up. Thinking of you and keeping Mr. Owen in my prayers.
