CT results

I called the Doctor yesterday to find out the results of Caleb's CT scan. I think I talked with a receptionist so I didn't get many details but she said everything was normal! His head is developing normally, just slowly as far as the sutures closing. They did see some fluid around his ears and sinuses. She said that if he had symptoms of an infection to call.
Well, he has had a fever for the past 3 days of 101.1 or so. I decided to take him in and he has an ear infection. His fever was 103 at the doctor! I honestly would not have thought he had an ear infection because he was not crying any more than normal. He just felt like he was burning up and I thought it was just the new teeth that were coming in!
The only reason I thought it was something more was because they said he had fluid by his ears.
He is starting to act more sick, very letargic, tired, and in pain but we have an antibiotic and everything should be great in a few days!

That's great news, Becky! Alex has an ear infection, too. Aren't antibiotics an amazing invention?
