Cole is sick

It's been a rough 6 days for Cole. Last Tuesday afternoon he got a headache and started to feel sick. He then stayed home for the rest of the week with a fever, sore throat, cough, headache. He thought he was feeling better Saturday - still weak and tired, but by evening he was declining and had a fever again. His fever has been up to 103*.

Today, Dad took him and Dillon to the doctor. Dillon was put on Prednisone for having stuff in his lungs. Cole was tested for all sorts of stuff (dr. didn't think he had H1N1). She thought it was mono or strep, but not. It's some sort of virus that his body is fighting off. His short-term iron count is depleted so he's supposed to take a vitamin with iron.

I hope he getsbetter soon.

Notebook Quizzes

Cole and I were looking at his grades online today. Cole said, "I hate notebook quizzes." I asked him why - because the answers should all be in the notes. He said, "Because I can't read my writing!" Isn't that sad?!
