Sick Boys

It's been a while since the boys have felt 100% healthy.  About a month ago, they both came down with a really nasty cold that just seemed to linger for a while.  It started with me and transitioned to them.  A week later, Maureen got it.  Just when we thought that we were clear, it reared it's ugly head again.  John came down with a fever and a cough on Saturday evening.  Nicholas followed suit on Monday morning.  It was Maureen's turn to start feeling it on Thursday.  If things progress like last time, I'll have it next week.


Anyway, John's doing better, but our Nicholas just can't shake it.  Maureen took him to the doctor since his fever had lingered for about 5 days.  Sure enough, the little man has an ear infection.  It was so bad the doctor said his ear drum was on the verge of rupturing.  Never once did that boy complain about his ear.  He just coughed and sneezed, but he toughed it out.  Had it been John, he would have been HOWLING.  He's a bit delicate like that.
