Cora came home from vacation with a BAD cough. Actually, it had gotten bad while still on the west coast. So after school we took her to the doc (she hadn't had any fever, so we figured she was ok to go to school) and found out that her left ear (which had been infected right before we left on our trip) has a ruptured ear drum and her cough is bad enough to require antibiotics and steroids. No wonder she had those meltdowns on vacation, especially at bedtime (ear pain is always worse when laying down). Since I felt guilty, and she requested it as we drove by after dropping of her prescriptions, I took her to Orange Leaf. In our house, ice cream makes all illnesses better. And James didn't mind one bit taking advantage of the situation...
