Antibiotics times two
I took both of the kids to the doctor today because “the cough” has become “the bad cough” and none of us could bear it any more. AJ isn’t sleeping and Zoe sounds horrible. They’re both on an antibiotic and will be for the next 10 days. Four doses a day times two kids…not much fun for mom! I sure hope it kicks in quickly—they’ve been too miserable for too long.
I got to work and requested permission to leave 10th period to get them to the docs if I could get in, but the latest appointment they had available was at 2:30. Fortunately, they let me take 1/4 of a sick day—who knew they were willing to work with me that much—before I wasn’t permitted to do that (a few administrators ago.)
I know AJ’s feeling badly because he actually asked to come home and take a rest. He never wants to rest! Zoe is fussing now so I probably need to get her fed—but at least she’ll eat for me. She’s not eating much for John or at daycare.
