Stomach bug

Jackson threw up five times yesterday. Poor boy. He went through all the outfits we brought to Ohio and used up nearly all ours too. So we eventually had to wrap him in a towel while we did laundry since he had no more pants. After calling and speaking with Jackson’s doctor office several times, we went to the ER at 11pm to see if he needed fluids for his little body since he hadn’t eaten in nearly 12 hours. At the Children’s hospital ER we waited and waited and waited and waited… and waited. We were finally seen at 2:30am and Jackson got some medication to decrease his nausea and hopefully reduce the vomiting. The poor little guy was awake on and off until 3:30 am. This afternoon Jackson seems to be doing better. He ate twice this morning and kept it down and has been sleeping all morning. It’s now 2pm and he’s still sleeping.

Joe won’t have a shirt and Jackson won’t have pants until the laundry is done!

Waiting room at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Jackson loved looking at the floor to ceiling fish tank!!

Waiting even longer in exam room. Jackson stayed awake for 2.5 hrs and fell asleep right before the Nurse Practitioner came in.

Tired. Frustrated. Just want to go home.

Jackson’s hospital bracelet. Much bigger than his newborn ankle bracelet 7 months ago!
