MONO!!!
We had a little unexpected surprise on Christmas Eve when Brock started with a fever and huge swollen glands again. He had just had strep 2 1/2 weeks before so we all assumed that it was that and I gave him plenty of medicine to help him to still enjoy Christmas day. When I took him to the doctor the day after, we found that he did not have strep but it was MONO instead!!! How on earth does a five year old get mono I do not know although now we are thinking that I am the one who started the mono thing in our house back in November when I was sick the entire month with the same symptoms. My mono test was negative, however they never did the longer test, just the rapid test for me. Brock is very tired and feeling pretty nasty, but hopefully he will be better soon and we can really have some with his Christmas toys. Unfortunately, this means that Brock will have to miss at least a month of basketball and absolutely no more wrestling and monkey business with the boys at home! Hmmm.. this should be interesting... and dangerous. I pray that we can keep him safe!
