Andrew is sick with an ear infection, his first one.

Posted by Don Homer (aka DonHomer) Jan 23 '09, 06:11

I had to stay home with him yesterday and took him to the doctor. Wife thought it might be bronchitis or something like that (he's had a cough, and very snotty, etc.), but it was an ear infection. Poor little dude.

I sure it goes away soon though, because this is now 3 straight nights he's woken up sometime around midnight and he won't go back to sleep on his own, so we've had to alternate sleeping with him.

On the plus side (for him), bubble gum flavored amoxycillin is apparently VERY tasty. ;)

That's the one thing I realized I sounded like my dad when I said it, "Bubble gum flavored medicine that really tastes good? Back in my day..." - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 23, 06:22 4

That bubblegum can be addictive it would seem. Imagine the bummer for one of my boys when he turned out to be allergic to amoxycillin. - Jim Jan 23, 06:20

- Yeah, I actually thought of you when the doctor said that's what it was. I was thinking I hope this is just a one-time thing. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 23, 06:21 1
