I have to keep this short, but lets just say G woke up with a fever of 102.  I brought him to the doctor and they said he looked like a healthy baby other than that and was probably just getting a cold.  We go home, he feels SUPER hot, we take his temp and it was 106!!!!!!  Yes, 106 - not 100.6.  We call the doctor who says to rush right back there.  After several tests and a catheter (SO SO SO sad and unpleasant - they were concerned about a bladder infection) we still don't know what it is.  His white blood counts are up, so there is an infection.  He is on an antibiotic, but we have NO idea what it is.  Ears are fine, no runny nose, no cough - NOTHING else we can see.  I am freaked out.  Luckily, Motrin is keeping the fever lower.  I hope he just starts feeling better.  I'll go into more detail later about a few other things, but I should go eat dinner with E (it's his b-day tomorrow, which is unfortunate).
