Buglet / uncle health woes. Hi all, thought I'd give a status update. I was sick last weekend through Tuesday with digestive loveliness. Then Tuesday night, Buglet was feverish. She'd been coughing a bit, so of course my first thought was, "Flu?" But it seems to not be the flu. According to the pediatrician it's an "unspecified upper-respiratory viral infection" which is doctorese for "looks like a cold, only with fever." Anyway, I stayed home with her the last two days. My parents gave me a nice break each afternoon too (thank you!) and today my husband is taking a shift. I suspect she won't be going to day care tomorrow either... we'll work that out somehow. And in far more serious health news, my uncle was rushed to the ER yesterday with a huge abdominal aorta aneurysm (!!!!) Thankfully it hadn't ruptured so his prognosis is OK once they finish surgery. But, scary!
