100 deg. temp

Jack woke up with a 100 degree fever this morning and an ulcer on his tongue. His tongue is hurting and swollen, so he is having a hard time drinking. Nurse Sara called in something for that, and Dr. Garcia is talking to Cook's Children's about their recommendations for blood work and protocol. Looking to hear back from her this morning. We will at the least get blood drawn today, and possibly head to Cook's Children's for admission to get his counts back up. I will post again when I know anything else.

____________________________________________________

9:30 am, talked with Dr. Bowman from Cook's and he said to try and keep Jack hydrated, if his temp doesn't
rise anymore then we just stay home. If it goes to 101 deg. then he will be admitted at Cook's. He is going to call at noon and check on Jack.

---------------------------------------------

2:25 pm Jack's fever is at 100.8 he is eating and drinking a bit so I am not too worried about dehydration.

---------------------------------------------
4:20 pm Jack's fever is at 102.4 Rob and I are headed to Cook's with him. They will admit him and draw blood, give him iv fluids and antibiotics, we could even be home tomorrow night!
