Guinness' Ear

So Thursday night he woke up at 11pm. Crying. Not just whimpering, unsettled, but 'WAH, I"m really upset, take care of me now pleassse" crying. No cuddles, song, book, TV show could console him. He cried until 1:30, slept till 3:00, was up till 4:30, slept till 6. I pushed him in the stroller in the yard for a bit till he fell asleep during the 3am stint, but anyway, yah. Bad night! (I am proud to say I didn't lose my temper or yell at Chris for something completely ridiculous or anything, as I am sometimes prone to do when I am way over tired.) So I took the morning off work (Chris had his own dr. thing), and took him in. Left ear; good. Right ear; not good. Very inflamed, acute middle ear infection the doctor said. "This is why he is so dis-comfortable" the doctor said :)
So we left with: amoxicillan for the ear, 3 more things to take care of the lingering cold symptoms from last week, and 2 things for the fever, including a very special up the b*tt fever pill they like to prescribe for high fevers because it brings them down more quickly. Oh, Taiwan. But thankfully the lines were all short, I got all of this for a mere 100NT (3$) and an hour after taking all this wonderful medicine he was feeling and acting WAY better. Pheww!

So thankful we live in the modern age, with medicine for my babies when they are sick!
