Nate's sickness.

So my blogs have been very scarce lately.

Nate has been sick (thank God he was better by the weekend!) with an ear infection. We had him at the ER last Monday and they said to go in for a follow-up on Wed or Thursday. We got him in Thursday morning with Dr. Bubolz (after 35 minutes on the treadmill with speeds between 3.4 - 3.8 & incline of between 2.0 - 4.0). If you know him and like him, I'm sorry, but we do NOT like him! He never seems to be interested in what we tell him is going on with Nathan and he always has something bad to say about the ER. I may not like taking him to the ER because we're usually there for awhile, but I don't talk smack about them. I think that's very unethical for a Dr. to be saying bad things about other Dr's. He tell us that Nate's ears look great and it was "probably not even an ear infection. You know those guys over there, always diagnosing & treating everything with an antibiotic." I think that's kind of rude. I told him "Well we have Medicaid for Nate so no matter where we are having him seen, it doesn't cost us anything."

Oh well, Nate is much better now (he hasn't thrown up since Friday but still had diarrhea til Saturday) and that's all we're worried about. Doc said to give him food & about an ounce of a sugary liquid (for the carbs) ever 15 minutes or so. We did that and he's good now. Nate prolly enjoyed it because Joe kept giving him Kool-Aid and suckers!!
