But I would be more thankful if my entire family was not under the weather. Both girls are on antibiotics. In the last week we have paid four $25 copays at the pediatricians office:
- Monday: LP's one year check up and confirmation of an ear infection. Add to this the $30 for the antibiotic that is penicillin free and therefore not in the "cheap tier" of our insurance.
- Friday: AK doesn't like to sleep when she can't breathe through her nose. Mommy was hoping to learn about some relief for her - alas, they only recommended saline for her nose. And to call back if her fever went over 101.
- Saturday: Follow-up for both girls. LP's ear infection is gone. AK now has one. Everyone still has the snots. But you try and get a 2 year old to take fake grape flavored Dimetap. That stuff is nasty!
Oh, and no doctor appointment needed to confirm that mommy is suffering from a serious bout of the sniffles and exhaustion.

We were in the same boat but without the copays Thanksgiving night. Mikayla woke up with a horrible cough and not feeling well. She kept the hubby up from 11pm to 2am and then I was up with Lily from 2am to 5am. lily had a 102 fever and nothing was working. She finally fell asleep at 5am until 6:30 when she woke up fever free. We spend a long quite weekend at home.
