Kaitrinn and I spent time at Urgent Care yesterday. She started complaining about her ear hurting her again and I about lost it. She has had more ear infections in the last 6 months than in the previous 5+ yrs! The Dr. said her ears were actually clear but he suspected Strep Throat instead. Gee…. I would have rather it been another ear infection!! Argh… the culture test confirmed strep and we headed off to get an antibiotic.
Apparently, Gavin is the safest in the house at the moment as it doesn’t really infect children under 2. I wasn’t aware of that but if the Dr. and the nurse line at my peds agree, who am I to argue I guess. Now we just get to keep a close eye on Shealyn as well because she is likely to get it soon. That will really throw her Diabetes for a loop so I’m hoping we can avoid it!
Kaitrinn had a hard time understanding how ‘throat germs’ could make her ears hurt so that of course led to a science lesson at the pharmacy as to how it’s all connected. Lol
