Infection

Zane woke up with a fever of 102 degrees, so I made an appointment with the pediatrician. She took a urine sample and ordered blood work. Zane’s misery was made worse by the insertion of the catheter and by the pokes for the blood test. This afternoon, the pediatrician called and told us that Zane has a serious bacterial infection. Unfortunately, we will not know what type until the cultures have grown. However, she instructed me to bring him in late today for a shot of antibiotics. I have never seen our little guy this sick before. I am trying to keep my anxiety at bay, but it is not working. Please say prayers for a “benign” infection and a swift recovery.

Thanks.
