Quarantine

Already Jacob is doing much better than when he came home from the hospital the first time. I am keeping my fingers crossed that he will get through the next two weeks without incident. I am only allowing him to be with Matthew at this point and no other children. Jacob has to come with me to drop off and pick up Matthew at school but I don't let him get close to anyone and I wash and disinfect his hands if he touches anything. Phew. And I thought I was paranoid before... My father recommended that we get surgical masks for people who visit the house so be forewarned. My poor mother has been really sick and I think she may have caught it from Jacob when she came to see him in the hospital:( To put this in perspective, Jacob was on five medications for the past week - 2 antibiotics, 2 inhalers, 1 oral steroid. Now he is on 1 antibiotic and 2 inhalers. Plus his anti-seizure medication. He's also on Lucky Charms, grilled cheese, vanilla ice cream, tortilla chips, and milk. (We are going to have an evaluation with the Feeding Program at Hasbro because he refuses to eat fruits and vegetables and just about everything else.)
