the crud....

I often wonder why my son and I seem to get all sorts of sicknesses...and they seem to hang on for DAYS!!! Today my clinic had exactly ONE appointment...which was in the after hours clinic...so we shoved some McDonald's in his face and marched into the sick factory (a.k.a the clinic) only to wait to get checked in for 15 minutes! Oh, and we were told we needed to keep a fun blue hazmat mask on our 2 1/2 year old!!! RIGHT like that was going to happen! So being the brave mom that I am....I wore one too...NOT! Let's just say they are not conducive to people with slight claustrophobia!
After exactly three minutes with a Dr. (which we have never seen before) she determined that our little guy had an ear infection and prescribed the pink magic liquid (a.k.a penicillin)
Well off to take some more cold and flu medicine...that is until I can get an appointment with a Dr.
