Concussion or Virus…

…That is the question. Camden went to a play date on Sat and got hit on the nose. It bled for a few minutes and we didn’t think about it again until Sunday afternoon when he complained of dizziness and he was uneasy on his feet. We took him to the ER where they said he had a concussion but all labs and scan were clear. They sent us home. Mon morning he still wasn’t steady on his feet so I scheduled an appointment for him to see his pediatrician. She isn’t 100% sure but feels it might be more of a virus and the bonk on the nose was a coincidence. He stayed home yesterday and by the evening he was flying his Lego ship around the house on missions.

We sent him to school today. It was a very difficult drop off. He screamed and cried for me. It really broke my heart to have to leave. It is so hard to make him do something he doesn’t like, and he has 13 years of this!

I did have a friend at the school peek in on him and he was sitting at his table coloring and chatting with a friend so everything seems to be alright now. I dread drop off time!
