Tristyn’s turn to go to urgent care
I tell you. I’m really over all this sickness. Tristyn had a really bad night last night. He was coughing all night and he had a 104 temp this morning. He said his ear hurt and he couldn’t breathe. When I checked his oxygen levels they were all over the place, from the 70s to the low 90s. So I rushed him to urgent care and we had to sit and wait over an hour before we ever got back into a room. They tested him for all the viral things, COVID-19, Flu type a and b, and RSV. He was negative for all of that but they found that he had a pretty bad ear infection in his left ear. My oxygen meter must have been low on batteries or something because his oxygen was stable in the low-ish 90s while he was at urgent care. I changed them when I got home.
I’m going to have him sleep in my room with me tonight so I can keep a close eye on him. Even with Motrin on board, his fever has been around 101-102.8. He’s already asleep in my bed and I’m having Zahkya sleep in his bed for the night. We’ll see how this goes, I’m sure before it’s all said and done they will both be in my bed tonight. Heh.
Meanwhile, This has been my worst day yet with whatever I have. I haven’t slowed down tonight with everything going on. My batteries are completely dead tonight. I did follow through with my commitment to #100DaysOfCode and I read about code and finished up my challenges on #freeCodeCamp.
