Poor Wyatt :(

This week Wyatt has had a stomach virus. On Wednesday he just started throwing up and couldn’t keep anything down all day. He woke up Thursday with a fever and a rash all over his body, it was so sad. He was miserable. We went to the doctor, the same doctor that told me he was too skinny, who thought Wyatt may have strep throat, but luckily the cultures came back negative. Watching Wyatt get cultured was harder than watching him get his shots, because in my opinion that is way worse, he handled it really well, what a brave little boy.

The one part of being sick Wyatt actually seems to enjoy is the towel I make him play on (it is to contain any surprise projectiles), he loves to be pulled around the living room on it.

Even when Wyatt is sick he is the sweetest thing ever, he just finds his blanket and snuggles up with it. He is doing much better today and has even been able to keep some solids down.

That is the saddest face I have ever seen. He looks so sick but I am glad to hear he is starting to feel better. Let me know if I can help this weekend while you are on call.

That is so sad. I feel so bad for you having to see your little prince sick. My mom has an in-house pharmacy so let me know if you need anything:) Poor boy, even I cried when I had strep and they stuck the q-tip down my throat.

I have heard that this is going around. Im so sorry that Wyatt caught it. Poor guy. He looks MISERABLE! Just what he needed to gain weight huh. Did you get my email about the book?

I know the weight thing is now worse, hopefully they will give me a couple pounds of wiggle room because of this illness. I have the book on hold at the library I just need to get over there and pick it up. Thanks.
