My Poor Sick Dude

Saturday night, Tater started feeling worse.  He was still running a fever and he was very fussy, which, if you know him, is very unlike him.  

We'd talked about taking him to our primary care doctor, which has a pediatric department, but they didn't have any openings.  We'd also discussed Solantic, but felt that it would be best to just wait it out and go Monday.  

Well, that was until we got up Sunday morning and the Tater looked like this:  


He was soo miserable.  I stayed home with him Sunday morning.  Normally, he is up and moving all around the living room, but this morning, he wanted to sleep and just sit.  He sat in my lap for almost 45 minutes, just content to sit still, something that he NEVER does.  

I texted Dave the picture (above) and we made the decision that when he got home, we'd go to Solantic.  

Of course, when we go to the doctor, he looks happy.  :)  

Here he is playing ball with Daddy while we waited for the doctor.  

But guess what? 
 He had a double ear infection (and I believe a sinus infection).  Poor dude.  No wonder he felt so horrible.  

So, we're on 10 days of antibiotics.  

Here's what he looked like Sunday night:  


Poor guy.  My heart breaks for him.  He never acts sick, even when he is, but this time, he was just so pitiful.  I don't like seeing my boy like this.
