Sick boy

On Friday the 8th, when I got into bed with you I realized you had a fever.  You had about a 102.7, so we slept with one eye open and gave you medicine until we could get to the doctor.  On Saturday, we went to the doctor and found out you had hand/foot/mouth disease.  You have sores in your mouth and your fever will be between 103 and 104.5.  This terrified us, but we kept you dosed with your tylenol and motrin every 3 hours and kept your fever away most of the time.  You would still run a higher fever at night though.  By Tuesday, your fever had pretty much gone away, but you will probably still have sores for a few more days.  You don't like to eat much right now, so maybe you will soon.
