As if high fever and general ickyness weren't bad enough for Gabriel while we were in Sacramento over the weekend, the doctor confirmed last night that he now has an ear infection and prescribed antibiotics.
Poor little guy. Jill became alarmed when after his fever broke the day before yesterday, he developed a rash all over yesterda and he was very fussy and restless. The rash is the last stage of roseola I have now learned, but the ear infection is independent of that and needs to run its course, medicated naturally.
SACRAMENTO A SICKFEST
Poor Gabriel came down with his fever Saturday morning and suffered from illness the whole time we were there. Needless to say, the visit wasn't what we all had intended, but we did lay low and let him rest.
In the meantime, we enjoyed several visits to In and Out Burger (3x3 Animal Style!), the Borders Books Educators Weekend Sale, Java Cafe, and I got to see where Tom's new office is going to be as he starts up his own legal practice. (link promised in the future).
Tom and Kate have a very nice house with a huge lot, big pool and hot tub, waterfall, and great privacy with the landscaping that's in place. They admit they have much work to do outside - the previous owners let things go. But we were impressed with the amount of work they had done so far in such a short time.
We also got to see Kate's sister and her newlywed husband on Friday night. Then on Saturday, Kate's parents Ron and Cloris (sp?) visited to see Gabriel. They live not too far away and were busy with their own improvement project for their deck.
All in all, it was a pleasant visit, though Gabriel had a bad time due to illness. We visited two doctors while there just to be safe. That was an ordeal in and of itself. But all is well.
Besides, how bad can it be when Avis gives you a free upgrade to this:
