I am whipped. Beat. Bone-tired. It was a long, rough day. Why, you ask? Perhaps this will help explain:
Oh yeah, I spent my day at the hospital with Boy. His intestinal virus continues ravaging him, unabated. He had a doctor appointment today and the doctor sent him over to the hospital to be rehydrated intravenously. This picture was snapped before the drama of the iv insertion. Awful does not begin to describe it. He kept screaming "Why? Why?" and sobbing "Please stop. Please just stop." He topped it off with a "Please don't hurt me anymore!" that nearly broke the nurses' hearts.
Rehydration seemed to help, as did the anti-nausea drug they gave him. He actually ate some dinner tonight. Followed by diarrhea, unfortunately.
Let's hope tomorrow is a better day.

Brutal day.
Here's to a swift recovery.
Oh no! I do hope he's feeling better today and is completely recovered quickly. Poor baby.
Awww that's so sad. It broke my heart just reading it, hearing his little voice was probably too much to bear. I hope he's feeling better soon.
I have two things. Both male. 7 and 4. My eyes teared up when I saw this pic and post. Be well. (and it is OK to cry!)
Hope he's (&sis) are doing better soon. Cheers, 'VJ'
