yesterday i noticed Mr. Breyman was starting to get a little bit of a cough.
last night he came down with an all out fever.
by this morning, little dude was not in a good way. first thing this morning i managed to get some acetaminophen into him, tuck him into a makeshift bed on the couch and convinced him to drink some juice. this was not as easy as it sounds.
after that all i could do was wait. and hope that his fever would break with help from the medicine.
there is some nasty flu going around, and i've already read and heard some horror stories about younger children catching it. so i was terrified this morning that he wouldn't get better. and that his fever might get worse.
i'm grateful to say that about 45 minutes or so after he took the medicine, his fever broke. and i was so relieved. he stayed home from school with me and i kept him medicated, so other than the horrible cough, he was feeling better by mid day. the hardest part of the day actually proved to be trying to keep him in said makeshift bed. and trying not to laugh every time Brey had a coughing fit and his sister looked at him and said "that's so disgusting..." Its good to know that nothing really changes, even of one of them is sick. i guess i'm grateful for that too.
Thanks for reading!
