Ear Infection

Tuesday night ended up being a very long night for mom, dad, and Dru. Dru woke during the night with a fever of 100.3 degrees, which automatically means she cannot go to daycare. Not only did she have a fever, but she was very uncomfortable and nothing could settle her. Dru has only been ill a couple times in her short life, so when all she wanted was to be held I knew we were probably looking at an ear infection. So, off to Dr. Ramos we went, and sure enough, she had an ear infection in her right ear.

After seeing Dr. Ramos, who was very surprised that she had never had any type of infection requiring antibiotics, we were off to the pharmacy. Once we arrived at the pharmacy, who was also surprised that she had never taken any antibiotics before, we were finally given her Amoxicillin. After being on this medication for two days, Dru is starting to get back to normal. She still has a runny nose, but it is much better than it was.
