We had put Owen to bed around 9pm and
at 10pm we heard crying coming from Owen.
Trent went to check on him and gave him Ibuprofen and he calmed down.
About a half hour later we just hear this awful crying and thuds so
we both run upstairs and Owen is burning up, has a rash everywhere and
isn't making any sense. I can tell he is about vomit so I haul him to the bathroom
where he vomits everywhere!
After we get him settled down a bit I call the nurse hotline for our insurance and
tell them his symptoms and that I think he has strep.
The nurse told me I should take him in because of him not making sense along with the other symptoms. I take him to the Children's hospital in KY at about 11:30 pm.
Two hours later we are home with medicine and a diagnosis of strep.
Poor kid started off his spring break with strep :(
