Here We Go Again

I'm sick and tired of my son being sick and tired. Gusi got up last night after I finished the previous blog entry. He was crying for me. I let PapaGus know and asked him to help out. When he walked into Gusi's room he yelled for me to come. What did I find? Vomit everywhere. EVERYWHERE. The scene was ugly. We ended up doing a large load of laundry (a bit of a hassle because the laundry room is outside of our house in the back towards the garden), cleaning Gusi up and trying to get him some fluids. He vomited a few more times then started running a fever. He eventually managed to sleep a few hours only to wake up with diarrhea. He has had leaky diapers all day today, but the vomiting has stopped. We have an appointment to see the embassy nurse tomorrow though I suspect we'll hear that he has a virus--what a surprise. In any case, we should get him checked out in case it's something worse. This is just the pits. I want off this roller coaster.

So sorry. I think that's one thing that sucks more than being sick and tired - taking care of someone who's sick and tired. But, on the not-vomit-everywhere side, he'll be SuperGusi soon enough - immune to everything.
