"ARE YOU GOING TRICK OR TREATING TONIGHT?"

People just crack me up sometime. On Saturday, which was Halloween, we had to take Cody into the pediatric urgent care because he had flu-like symptoms. The triage nurse had ears on and her face painted like a cat. She had just taken Cody's temperature and it was 101.5. She asked Cody, "are you going to go trick or treating tonight?" Oh, my gosh. We have been quiet about it all day because he was sick and there is no way in heck, I am taking him out trick or treating. Thanks for reminding him. Do you really think a sick kid should be out trick or treating? Instead, we got tamaflu, a steroid for his breathing, a burger king kids meal, and passed out candy at home to trick or treaters. For the record, Cody was perfectly fine on Sunday, no fever, and we are pretty sure he was sick from his flu shot that he had received at school thursday afternoon. Just fighting off the flu shot and now candyless!
