Back at my dad's place.....

1 week to go until I move into my new place! I just came back from my grandma's house, which is one hour away from Medicine Hat. We had a pretty good time. My grandma was sad to see us go. I am glad I was there when I was because my grandma is a diabetic, and sometimes her sugar levels drop rapidly, leaving her unconscious or semi-conscious. (This did happen).
Mason was in the ER last week because I could hear a "rattle" in his chest. The doctor did x-rays and gave Mason a nebulizer (He hated it!!!) I was the "meanie" who had to hold it on his face, and he cried and cried. I felt so mean! But the wheeze in his chest improved after that. The docotor said he himself did not see problems with the x-ray, but would have the radiologist review it as well. He said to follow up with our family doctor the next day to check his breathing. The next day, an hour before our appointment with the doctor, the ER physician called me on my cell to say that Mason needed an antibiotic because the radiologist that reviewed his x-ray saw a shadow (the beginning of an infection in his chest). So our family doc put him on medication. (Penicillan) (How the heck do you spell it??!!) Anyhow the day we left to go to my grandma's (last Friday), Mason's bum became red. Well turns out he has a yeast infection..........I am assuming from the antibiotic. So off to get bum cream at the walk-in!!! Then, while visiting my grandma, Mason became constipated.........(weird for him). So off to the pharmacy we went to get stuff for that! (I have a feeling Mason's bum yeast infection won't go away until he's done his antibiotic. (Only 1 more day!!!) That's all that's new here for now!
