Well H hasn't ended up having any trouble with his boss at work, so his boss must have thought better of it or my H misread the sitch but nonetheless, H feels better as he is ready if anything happens so that is good.
Well we have been having very hot temperatures the last few days here in Melbourne. Friday and Saturday were stinkers, Can't remember Fridays Temp but Saturday was 40.7 and Sunday was 43 degrees. Today is only 26 which is much better.
My S9 was outside yesterday with his thongs on and got stung by a bee (1st bee sting ever) anyhow he was screaming and crying and we got the sting out and put ice on his foot and soaked it in a bucket of cold water and though a little inflamed and swollen didn't seem too bad. A couple of hours later though his foot just kept getting bigger and bigger. We both had a rather sleepless night but I didn't rush him off to the hospital as he wasn't having trouble breathing. This morning though he developed a rash as well and I thought OK best to get this checked.
We went to the doctor's who said it was an allergic reaction but very slow acting for some reason and to still keep an eye on him especially around the mouth. He prescribed something, can't remember the name and also some anti-histamine to slow the inflammation and said to use Panadol as well. Said it may take a week to go down and that he should go on crutches due to the size of his foot and to keep it elevated.
Off we go and get the meds and the crutches and I have never seen someone so unco-ordinated on crutches in my life. He plays football and cricket but is hopeless on crutches. He doesn't balance well and doesn't get them right under is arm pits so falls over, don't know if they will be much use but maybe a bit of practise.
Anyhow we will keep an eye on him and apparently if he gets another bee sting we have to watch him closely as more than likely he will have a worse reaction the next time if he is indeed allergic otherwise it will be like normal as the reaction this time might just be to the sting as in a reaction to a bite so we will see.
That was drama enough for me.
H and I went out Friday night and had a good night and he stayed and then Saturday we spent the day together and he took S9 home for the night and I went out with Jarrod and a couple of his friends. Sunday H came over we watched a couple of D.V.D's, had tea and he went home about 8.30pm.
So not a bad weekend, things going along at a leisurely pace, I am still feeling a bit indifferent so we will probably just plod along like this for awhile I think.
Well that's it for my update so until next time....Kim
