Did I mention that the nurse mom combo sometimes is awful? I've seen MRSA, I've heard about MRSA over and over and over again. Did I ever think that my 6 week old baby would have it? I mean how is it possible? Where did he get it? What does this mean for him? I know there are powerful antibiotics out there that can kick this bug but they can also be pretty tough on your system as well. Will he need to take these?
Needless to say I had a few moments of panic this morning. I'm thankful to all of you that I texted early this morning in panic and the reassuring you granted with offering of prayer. It took a bit for me to relax, it just caught me off guard so much.
Funny. When it's your son or daughter... it is terrifying to get an unexpected phone call. I can only imagine what those parents feel like when they get a cancer diagnosis in that way.
He has an appointment on Wednesday so we will know more then. I cannot even really speculate what any of this means. I don't have a knowledge base to go off of. So until then we wait... But it is some relief to have an idea about what might be going on. Because I guess, it wasn't really the stuffy nose that bothered me... it was the swollen lymph nodes... I knew something was off when they started getting larger.
Hopefully now we can treat this and move on... with nothing more to worry about then when he will start cutting that first tooth.
Thank you as always for your prayer and support... even in the simple things it is greatly appreciated.
(I think his eyes are going to stay blue!)
