Sick? We haven't gone anywhere?!

Ben woke up this morning fussy, vomiting, really hot, pale and with a high heart rate. I kept him home from school today and luckily had one of his regular nurses here to help me take care of him (vomiting, the trach and suctioning makes for a challenge with only one person when he wants held all the time). I don't know how he could be sick, we haven't really taken him anywhere since this snow storm hit last Tuesday. But regardless, I hope he feels better soon. Seems like he has been sick so much this winter. He is sleeping right now and I am taking advantage of the break before the nurse leaves at 2:30.

This picture shows how sick my lil guy is... Ben would never agree to have a cold washcloth across his forehead unless he felt miserable. His little chin keeps on trembling every so often too and it breaks my heart.

Eva has the same lightup toy in the picture and she does not put the star rings on it at all she just like to watch the lights light up.
Hugs to sweet Ben,
Crystal and Eva
