i took him straight to the doc. she had to do blood work and put an ice pack on his neck. little guy is a trooper i was very worried until 30 minutes ago because menegitis (sp?) came up at the docs office. doc called home and said he just has a bad viral infection. his white blood cell count was very high which the doc says means his body recognizes the virus as a threat and is sending out the troops to deal with it and everything is working right. he is miserable we can only get his fever down to 101 with tylenol and ibuprofen and he wont eat anything and only drinks when we make him. she said if it spikes again to take him to the ER. her seems a little better as long as we keep his fever down. all of you who are parents will understand how i feel. its much harder watching your child suffer than anything i can think of.

i hope the kid'o is bouncing around soon bro!The burden of originality is one that most people don't want to accept. They'd rather sit in front of the TV and let that tell them what they are suppose to like, what they're suppose to buy, and what they're suppose to laugh at. You have Beavis and Butthead telling you what music you're allowed to like and not like, and you've got sitcoms that have canned laughter that lets you know when to laugh if you're too stupid to know when the joke is. People are too lazy and too stupid to think for themselves because America has raised them that way.

I definitely feel ya! Everytime one of my kids get sick, I worry myself sick! I would much rather it be me sick than my kids!I remember one time my daughter had a fever of 105. Scared the piss out of me. I took her to the ER at 1:00 in the morning and found out she had strep throat! VERY SCARY!!

Sounds like the little guy is a real trooper.
Probably takes after his pa!
Bring him home a Freezie! It's a soothing treat for him and it'll help get his fluids up...RIP BigJim33 & GearedUp: You are sorely missed my friends.
