Chase

I am most certain that I will not be receiving the MOTHER OF THE YEAR AWARD this year....

In my last post I wrote that Chase my 13yr.old had an earache and the next day I took him to the Doctor with complaints of a earache and sore throat, his ear looked a little red but no big deal, his throat showed no signs of redness and he had no fever he seemed to be fine last night and this morning when he got on the bus to go to school, so when the Nurse called from school today to say Chase was in her office again I ask her if he had a fever and she said no but he said his throat hurt I said give him Motrin and he'll be fine......fast forward to 3:30 this afternoon...Chase all but crawled off the bus and drug himself in my salon in tears, I then realized he had a fever (102) So while I rushed to rinse hair color off of my clients my Mom took Chase to the ER and I met her there they tested him for the Flu and it came back positive for Influenza A (better known as swine flu) they sent us home with medicine in hand and said to bring him back if his symptoms got worse, he has been asleep since we've been home only waking up to take his meds and drink a little sprite..(now I'm having the whole Mom guilt thing) so I'm prepared for a long night seems like the later it gets the more restless he gets..please pray for a quick recovery and that my other two don't get the flu..Blessings.

Chase's fever is down to 99.8 much better than 103. Seems like night time is worse on him, he is very congested, and still has a bad headache. Thank you for all your prayers, please continue to pray.
