Liam was running a slight fever last weekend, and although it was gone by Sunday, I decided to take him to the doctor for a check-up since it seems like he's been sick quite a bit in the past month or so. After his exam checked out fine and dandy, the doctor decided to do blood work, just to make sure everything was okay. His blood count almost immediate came back in the normal range, but we had to wait a couple of days for the results of the other tests. Well, I just received a call from the doctor, and apparently although Liam is currently negative for mononucleosis, he's had it in the past. Once you've had the virus, although dormant and inactive, it remains detectable in your body, but it rarely ever reoccurs. WOW. So Liam has had mono, and Jon and I didn't even know it. Yikes! I guess the good news is, since he's so young it's not as debilitating, but it's crazy that he has had it at all. He's fine now, though, but it's been a rough flu season in the Bushwar household. I'm definitely getting ready for spring and hoping the sick bugs have left the house!
