DS is still sick frown . He seems to be staying hydrated - which is good, but he's still so obviously not... right. There's been a gastrointestinal bug going around our area [apparently] and nearly everyone here's had it at least a little bit and he just can't afford that. If he's not doing MUCH better by Monday, we'll be going back to the doc. If he gets much worse, we'll be in the ER or urgent care before then.

Normally I'm not too much of a worry wart about this kind of stuff. I mean, I hate throwing up and I don't deal well with it in the best of times and a little stomach bug usually isn't anything to freak out about... but DS... he's so little... And his tummy is swollen half the time and looks odd and he just doesn't have any reserves whatsoever. The kid is literally skin, bones and organs. He can't afford to lose weight or anything like that.

'They' said the bug is running 3-4 days and this was day 4 so hopefully tomorrow will see a turning point...
