Now I feel like a bad Mommy today… Yesterday I had the kiddos outdoors all afternoon while I was gardening, and last night their allergies really started to act up. Thade had itchy watery eyes, and an itchy throat too, Dylan had a big cough, and was miserable. Today Thade woke up early and he wasn’t feeling well at all. Dylan still has the horrible cough too.
As the morning went on Thade looked worse and worse. His tummy was acting up, and he starting saying that his ear hurt bad. James and I decided that while he was on his lunch hour I would take Thade out to Urgent Care and he would take care of Dylan.
I took Thade, and he was just miserable. They tested him for Flu and Strep, and then the Doctor found a very bad ear infection in Thade’s right ear. The Doctor thinks that the ear infection was caused by some pretty bad allergies. Now both of the kids are going to be put on a round of meds to help Thade’s ear infection, and to prevent Dylan from getting one. Both kids need to be on allergy medicine full-time too.
I hope that Thade will be feeling back to better soon, he is crashed out on the couch right now, so you know he is sick.
