ABOUT  RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS,   AND PROBABLY A WHOLE LOT OF NOTHING,   MARINADED IN HUMOR.

Sick

Our little grandson is sick. He had diarrhea for a couple of days now and although Mom tried to keep him hydrated, she didn't really trust it.

She called the doctor yesterday morning and he suspected little critter might be lactose intolerant and told her to switch over to another brand of milk, that would have decreased lactose in it. He seemed to be doing a bit better at first. Not really though and they took him to the hospital.

Good thing they did. He was getting a bit dehydrated and they put him on an IV. Just the thought of that makes me shudder. Our 10 month old grandson being poked with needles! I can so imagine how his Mommy must have felt. But it's all for the best and hopefully it hasn't been too traumatic for him.

Maybe now his little tummy will clear up and he will recover quickly. I am so grateful his Mom took action as soon as she suspected something was amiss. Moms seem to instinctively know when something is wrong with their babies. Those feelings shouldn't be underestimated or neglected, they are usually right!

Get well soon, my little buddy!
