H1N1?

Ah, great.

Yesterday Jude had a hacking dry cough (like I’ve had since Sunday) but was otherwise normal all day.

Josh thought he was a little warm last night around supper time.  I didn’t think he was warm enough to take his temperature.

Jude started coughing more after he went to bed.  I went to check on him a little after midnight and he felt really warm to the touch.

104 degree warm.

So, we have him Tylenol right away and later Josh made a trip to the gas station to get some Motrin because our kids have always responded better to Motrin as a fever reducer.

He did well the rest of the night and had a lower grade fever this morning.  I’ve put a call into the pediatrician’s office.  I don’t think we need to be seen, I just want to refresh myself with how to treat these symptoms and ask what I need to be concerned about if Jace starts showing symptoms, too.  Yikes.  I hope not.

Pray for us to get/stay well, will ya?
