11/365 - My Sick Boy

My sweet boy has been sick since yesterday. He had to leave work early yesterday (Tuesday), missed his first classes of the semester yesterday afternoon/evening, and had to get someone take his shift for today. He has pretty much been in bed since yesterday at 2:00 pm, with the exception of taking a visit to the see the doctor. The doctor thinks it's food poisoning, and says that it isn't unusual for a fever to accompany the regular signs of food poisoning. Matt can't think of anything that he ate out of the ordinary, or that someone else didn't eat with him, but I guess you can get it from handling raw meat as well (which Matt does at work daily). Tonight he came up stairs to borrow my heating pad for his sore neck, but didn't make it back downstairs before crashing for a few hours before heading back to his own bed. After a shower and some toast, he said "lights out" at 9:30 pm. Hopefully he will be better tomorrow (which would be his 3rd day). I hate to see him feel so bad, especially when there's nothing I can do but sit/rest with him and refill his Gatorade.
