and it continues (part 2)

It's Sunday afternoon. Calum did not sleep at all last night, at most an hour at a time. He was in pain. At 5:30am, Angie and I decided that we should take him into Children's Hospital Emergency. After a mad dash across the city and an hour wait, the doctor said that Calum's 2 week cold caused a middle-ear infection. He also told us that he thought he heard something in Calum's chest. Off to radiology for a chest x-ray.

Let me tell you, an x-ray is pretty simple for adults. But for a sick child who wants nothing more than to be held by his mom...seeing Calum stapped in (to prevent him from moving) and bawling his little eyes out was hard.

The doctor found what he called the "smallest pneumonia in the world" but as he said, "nonetheless it's there"

Calum is on antibiotics for his ear infection and for his small pneumonia. He seems to be doing a lot better already...what a tough kid eh.

Here is a picture of Calum and Angie, we went out to Richmond and enjoyed the sunshine by the airport.
