We took him on Friday to get a flu shot. We traveled over an hour and a half (1 bus, 2 trains, and a 15 minute walk) to get to an English speaking clinic. It was over 3 hours round trip for a 10 minute appointment! Marley wasn't happy to be there, as he told us about 100 times on the way, but the doctor was excellent and was done within seconds and Marley barely knew what happened. However, since this is his first flu shot ever they suggest he gets two doses. So I'm sure the next time Marley will not go as willingly. Unfortunately, one of the side effects was a fever or vomiting for the next 12-24 hours. He seemed fine the rest of Friday and all day Saturday so they thought he had made it through without any complications. That was until about midnight last night when the vomiting began. And lasted til late morning. Poor guy didn't get any sleep, which means neither did Kelly, and felt terrible. When he finally came out to see me this morning we rested on my bed and Seth was cleaning up the room. He looked at Seth with the cutest confused look and said "Daddy did you vomit last night?" haha His stomach wasn't feeling the best but he seems to be on the up and up tonight. Fingers crossed tomorrow goes better! He kept saying in a sad voice "Please let me feel better Tracey" : (
On a brighter note, we bought some grapefruit juice and Gin at the grocery store today. My last week just got better!
