Gail called me at lunch yesterday to let me know that Karsten had a temp of 101.5. DRAT - hopefully this wasn't the flu. He complained several times that his heart hurt, which alarmed me a bit. He had started a small cough that morning, so I assumed that his chest may be tight because of the cough and he interpreted it as his heart hurting. However, since I always error on the cautious side, I gave the asthma doctor a call.
We went in and they checked him for the flu and strep - both negative. WHEW! So, we headed home for rest to help him get well - but we stopped to get ice cream on the way home so to soothe his sore throat. :)
The fever was gone by Friday but he stayed home with Scott to get some extra rest.
