Good weekend, but Nick is sick again

Nick stopped throwing up by Friday afternoon and was feeling better. He still had not eaten much the whole week. He really wanted to go for a sleepover at Auntie Lisa's house that night with Colby and their friend Brian. This was one of those things that we could not say no to. Of course we trusted Auntie Lisa very much, but it looked like Nick was starting to spike a fever. He was very sad during the week and this is what has kept him smiling all day Friday. He was going whether we said yes/no at the time. We over loaded Lisa with a list of instructions and to take his temp. all the time and of course call us if needed. Everything worked out great for Nick, but we received the call at 6am Sat. morning that Colby was now throwing up. This virus is nasty and we are still not done with it. They both had a great time Friday night and Auntie Lisa said Nick was smiling all night long watching the boys play Wii. Colby was much better by Saturday afternoon and we all stayed in for a family night. (And because it was 2 degrees outside)
On Sunday, the boys had swimming lessons and then off to their play dates. I received a photo of Nick during the day and he was beaming with Michael. When Nick came home, he even ate some Chinese Food. He was in bed early last night but woke up again throwing up. Just when we thought this virus has run its course, Nick is still sick. He is home today and not feeling much better. Greg will be taking him to clinic this afternoon and we'll see how his counts are. I keep taking his temp and he is slowing climbing towards a fever. His body is definitely weak, tired and ready to be over this.
