Worries.


October 21, Republic.

For a while I thought it was swine flu.
Dylan had had a cold for more than a week and yesterday he woke up from a nap with a hundred and four fever. We had almost brought him in a few days ago for a dry, persistent cough, then opted for natural remedies; we were, as usual in the circus, in the middle of nowhere. This time I rushed to a pediatric urgent care clinic in Springfield.
It was pneumonia, but not so severe that he required hospitalization. The night was long and difficult, coughing and the fever is up again. Still, it's not the dreaded flu.
