We were at the hossy just over 3 hrs... they took us straight in though cause we had a letter from the doc...

They tried him with a tablet that dissloves under the tongue. Its a med they use for cancer patients that throw up after chemo, and cant put anything in their tummy. Its pretty strong, but the doc said it works.

And so far it has. He has kept lots of water down so far. We have to take him back if it comes back so fierce again, but so far so good. The diarrhoea is getting pretty bad, but he said it would for a bit cause he's keeping the fluid in now.

So for now we avoided the drip, thank god. But he was SO good, and he knew he might have to have a needle, and was being very brave! He has slept most of the arvo too, which he needed.
