A Very Interesting Week

Well, we have had a very interesting week. Last Thursday morning after he ate, Wills threw up - definitely what you would call "projectile" vomit. He was lethargic and just not himself, so we ended up taking him to the pediatrician, who was especially concerned about how lethargic he was. She sent us to the ER around noon. The staff there was wonderful - they took great care of all of us. Wills had bloodwork done, and they also took a urine sample and did xrays of his stomach. He had to wear a little hospital gown - it broke my heart - and he had to have an IV. He handled everything great. His glucose levels were low, but they weren't sure if he had a virus or possibly a UTI, so they gave him saline with glucose and an antibiotic, and finally sent us home around 5pm.

Wills improved immediately, and it turns out he had a virus. We know this for sure because on Saturday, I got sick, and Tim got sick on Sunday. My sweet mom came on Thursday night to help take care of us, and she got sick on Sunday too - so sorry, Mom!

Anyway, all is well now - Wills is back in daycare and doing great - back to his normal self.

Some other exciting news - it is snowing here in Atlanta! Here are some pictures!
