Supporting Hand

So not long after my last post Cutler spiked a fever up to around 101.  Naturally I overreacted and called the doctor, the pediatrician, and 5 minutes later was picking up Mason from school and heading our way in.  On the way I told Mason there was a chance that we wouldn’t make his soccer game depending on how long and what the doctor said.  Mason, being the incredibly supportive brother he is, didn’t even think twice about it and simply said that is was ok.  So just to keep everyone updated, Cutler was tested for the flu and rsv and both turned out negative.  The doctor thinks it is just some gunk going around this time of year and that he should be fine in a few days.  A couple of the nurses even stopped in and told us it was nothing to worry about and that indeed there is a gunk going around, but to feel free to call them as often as we like and to come in as often as we need.  It warms my heart the support we get from them every time we visit.  Just like today, the nurse was waiting for us as we walked in and we were whisked away.  Cutler is sleeping away and despite a few coughs, seems to be sleeping well.

By the way, Mason did make it to his game and showed more hustle and the most aggressiveness we have ever seen from him in soccer.  He even rang a shot off the inside post.  Coach Brian was nice enough to call it his first goal.  Below is a picture of the two boys while hanging at the doctor’s office.

  1. There’s no such thing as overreacting, especially with your little guy’s history.
