Poor Aiden

Well...we've been up for a few hours now with Aiden. Yep...he's throwing up and is having the yucky diapers again. The last test results at the doctors that we got back were normal...no parasite...no hepatitis...no bacteria...maybe a food allergy. So here we sit, trying to figure out what he ate yesterday that was different from the day before. Chicken, applesauce, apples, muffins, mac and cheese, pancakes, hmmm...all pretty normal things. What was different about yesterday? Chem Lawn came and sprayed. Could he be reacting to that? In May we signed up to have them come and spray. They have done three applications...May, June and July. Hmmm...this is when Aiden started getting sick. Could he be reacting to that? I don't know...I think I am reaching...trying to find an answer...anything. So...when the doctors office opens this morning up we are bringing him back in. We're calling Chem Lawn to see exactly when they were here...and then we are going to compare the exact dates that he got sick to see if there is a connection. Don't know if I am being overly paranoid by bringing him back in....last time I asked the doctor if I should bring him in again if he had another episode. His response was...it could just be the flu that is going around...but follow your gut! What the heck...follow my gut???? My gut is telling me a three year old healthy child (besides his allergies) does not get sick with the flu as many times as he has in the last three months! My gut is telling me to do whatever I can to make him feel better! No three year old should have to be crying and telling his mommy and daddy to make it stop hurting. No three year old should have to tell his mommy and daddy to take his stomach out so it stops hurting. No three year old should be bent over the toilet or bucket as many times as he has in the past couple hours! So now we wait...trying to find answers!!! We'll let you know when we find something out...if we find something out!!!
