Boy is sick

We've been having a bad couple days here. A is sick and in pain, enough pain that he's on the occasional crying jag where nothing helps and all he wants to do is cry.

So I took him to the doctor this morning (the choices: 8:10 last night or 8:45 this morning--considering their track record with late night appointments, I decided the morning was better).

No ear infection, nothing wrong with heart or lungs, he's just got a head cold that's giving him ear and sinus pain. Now, you and I can take Sudafed, but the boy has to wing it with saline. Sigh.

He's crying again. We are all apparently Argentina here.
