Monday - Satori's 8mth anniversary of birth
Monday 11.30pm - Flynn wakes with major bought of Croupe. Considered doing the midnight dash to hospital, but found I had a dose of steriod left from his last bought 5 weeks ago. Anyway musical beds - Neil in Flynns, Flynn takes over 3/4 of the king and I sleep on the edge all night making sure he is still breathing.
Tuesday am - go to doctor to get more steriod - got ears/throat checked- all good
Tuesday 11pm ish - woken by Flynn. Temp of 40 degrees
Pamol, panic, consider going to hospital, but last time we did this he had 3 failed lumber punctures (sp) so not keen - and neither is he. He still remembers them and he was only 15mths old. 12ish still hasn't come down so we try ibprofen(slightly out of date, but did the trick
Musical beds again! Finally some sleep at about 3.30am.
Wednesday 5.30am woke up on the edge of the bed - Flynn 40.2 temp - same as above
Wed 8.00am sent neil to get more ibprofen.
Wed 4.00pm A & E cause my doctor only does half day on wednesday and as completely booked out. Flynn has tonsilitis on top of croup
Antibiotics.
Wed 7.30 pm Had my Lorraine Linen Party that was booked for weeks. Needed that like a hole in the head
Wed 11.00pm Flynn 40.1 Temp
Same as above, plus antibiotics, and of course musical beds
Thursday 6.30 am - as above
AF arrived
It is now thursday 10.45pm and so far so good
Flynn is
and I'm about to go to
I hope I haven't jinxed myself
The worst part of all of this is the absolute fear that I have now when he gets sick. I have been panicking for the last three days and really need to calm myself at times, otherwise I would definitely be having frequent visits to the hospital.
