Our bad day started overnight. Sammy woke up at 1 am, crying and complaining of his throat hurting. He continued to wake up over the next 7 hours, approximately every 15 minutes. It was terrible. In hindsight, I probably should have gone upstairs with Sammy and stayed in his bed with him, rather than subjecting Mike to the crying as well, but that is no matter.
So, after a long and sleepless night, we went to our ENT this morning for our follow-up for Sammy and Sophia. Sophia is doing wonderful. Her ears are completely clear! Sammy, however, has developed a case of thrush, which is a yeast infection in the mouth. In addition, his scabs, which I thought were coming off several days ago, apparently have just started to come off. What does all this mean? More days of recovery. And more medicine.
My poor baby - I thought we were almost out of the woods, but not yet. Hopefully here in the next few days. In the meantime, really wish I could brush his teeth, but again, just a few more days . . .
