Monday-Today Cody slept in a little. He had a pretty good night and was catching up on some sleep. I baked all day. Lots of goodies for the drs and nurses that we will see tomorrow. We are all set for Casey and Nicole. Cody was lying on the couch waiting to watch the Islanders game which we could not get and lo and behold, he had a fever. We took his temp several times and he got so upset and cried. I know he does not want to spend another Christmas in the hospital and I will do my best to avoid that. So off we go to Sloan. We get here and he has no fever. Of course it spiked again by the time we got to our room here in Urgent Care. Big decision but looks like we are going home and then we will return tomorrow for our appt. He is getting an antibiotic now and will get it again tomorrow. If we stay, we are here for 72 hours and I think it is worth it to try to go home. Last time he never got a fever again. Let's hope this is the case with this one or we will be back and will be admitted. I really hope we can get through this week and stay home. It is 12:45 am and the plan is to go as long as nothing grows while we are here. He is getting an antibiotic and then we can leave. Long drive as I am so tired. We can sleep in tomorrow and then head back here sometime after lunch.

Please say an extra prayer for us when you read this. Thanks.
