So I get the dreaded call from daycare at 3 that Jake has thrown up and you need to pick him up although his temp is only 99.6. So I pick him up and visit the pediatrician. No temp still 98.6 but he can't keep down 5ml of Gatorade. Dr send us down to the ER or Judy tells me today that it's called ED now. Anyways, he gets medicine and tried water again. Vomit. Gets an IV (he did not like that at all) and get some fluid in him. Tries more water...vomit. Gets another dose of meds through the IV. Tries water..vomit. Lab works look great and he acts fine. doctor says probably a stomach bug. Earlier doctors said we might stay the night for observation if he can't keep anything down. . Hopefully we get to go home soon since he was abke to pee. It's 11:30 and we check in at 5. Luckily, Judy prob up the iPad and the charger and let me get some food. I can't imagine taking care if 2 kids alone especially when one is sick.
Waiting for his pee lab results. Fingers crossed. Sleeping At home in your bed is under rated.

I've never seen anyone so happy to be admitted to the hospital. I hope he gets better soon!
Maybe it was the chocolate fountain that did it...kidding!
