Harrison was feeling terrible while we were there, screaming & throwing up everywhere (among other things). While checking him over, the Dr. found a lump on his collarbone & ordered X-rays. Several hours, more throwing up, and a few tests later found that it was indeed broken. Great. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can really do for it except let it heal. Of course, every little stumble he makes now makes us catch our breath!
We're still waiting on tests results to see what the boys have. They think it's rotavirus, but we had to take samples at home & deliver them to the lab before we have the results. And since South Baldwin Hospital is about the most inept place on the planet, we actually had to do 2 samples...one that we took there & another that we took to our preferred hospital, Thomas. The only reason we even went to the first hospital for labs is that the test has to be done within 2 hours of the sample being collected, and Thomas is 40 minutes away. We definitely learned our lesson to not cut corners....even our doctors warned us. Next time, we'll listen & make the trek no matter what!
