This week, the game's in Provo, UT against BYU. Should be a great game! Should be a fun time! And Sean was all geared up to go, but then.... Dex was diagnosed with the Swine Flu yesterday (more below). No mo' game. We have been quarantined, and I'm sure nobody wants us around them as much as we don't want to go out in public! So, it's left up to Manley and the rest of the TCU game crew to head to Utah and represent!
Even in his tired sickness, Dex knew how important it was to get a blog up for the game tomorrow. He's a trooper :) This is his official "sick smile." It's a little different than his normal smile, and i'm not sure why, but he pulls that bottom lip down really far and you can see his whole row of bottom gums. Like he doesn't want to, but he knows he should smile. Haha! Sweet boy.
This is what he's normally looked like the last day and a half:
So... on Thursday Sean and I went to work and Lyndsey came to the house like always. He was kind of fussy in the morning, but not too concerning. By lunch, his fever was up to 101 and he was miserable. We made an appointment with our pediatrician, and yep... Swine Flu. Can. Not. Believe. It. This is the first time he's been sick, and bam! The big one! It was really scary to be diagnosed, because the people dying from this have underlying medical conditions, such as chronic lung disease, which he has. BUT, his lungs sound really clear so far (we had another appointment this morning) and his fever is hovering around 99. The doctor says it all looks very positive, that this might turn out to be a mild case. We're not completely out of the woods, but so far it's been as good as it can be. Thank you, God!
