Bad Mommy Moment - Trying to Fix!

So we are out at the baseball game and FL is experiencing insanely high temps for October. So its sunny and ridiculously hot. And Tristan is being lazy. Not running to his position, asking for a drink when its the middle of warm ups, etc. So I tell him to drink some water and shake it off, its hot for all of us and he needs to play his best. So he goes and does.

Comes home. ASKS to nap. Um what?!? Sleeps for an hour, wakes up with a 101 fever. So we give him Motrin thinking maybe it is heat exhaustion or something, lots of water. By 5 am this morning he is screaming due to nightmares, shaking, sweating and running a 102 temp. The Motrin brought it back down and I have exactly 25 minutes before his drs office starts taking calls on Sundays.

If you are the praying type - please pray its nothing big. Us all staying home for 5 days is a bit detrimental to our saving money thing and just plain miserable in general so we are really hoping that its nothing (aka Influenza A or swine flu). In the meantime this mean mommy is trying to make up for being mean with ice water, washclothes and drs appts! Oops...

Oh no! I hope it's nothing serious and he gets better soon.
