Another day, another antibiotic

Seriously?! 
Another infection? 
More antibiotics?
The saga never ends, does it? 
Are you tired of hearing about it yet?  We're a bit tired of dealing with it!
Yep, you guessed it... Jonah again.  Though it's not impetigo this time (not that I know of!).

We were in "town" for Jake's doctor appointment (more shots for his back/leg) and for Jonah's routine blood work for Shands.  After those two things, lunch, new tires for the van and a little mall shopping for Levi who has gotten too tall for most of his pants, we headed over to Sam's Club.  As we were getting out of the van, Jake noticed the lump on the back of Jonah's neck.  It's been there for a long time (months at least), but it was noticeably bigger today.  Enough so that Jake advised we call the doctor right then (which we did and they got him in within 30 minutes.  We so love the boys' doctor's office!). 
The nurse takes his temperature and says it's 99.5 (we had no idea he had a fever) and when she started asking us how long he'd been complaining about the lump we had to tell her (as usual), "He hasn't!" He hardly ever complains of anything.  Jake pushed on the lump at 3:00 to ask him if it hurt and he then said it did, but this was now 3:30 and we're sitting in the doctor's office... so how long has he been "complaining about it"? 
About 30 minutes. 
That is if you count his "Yes" answer to "Does this hurt?" as complaining.

The lymph node in his neck is swollen a good big indicating infection (the doc is not sure if the lymph node itself is infected or if it's reacting to another infection). 
So, here we go again... another 10 days of antibiotics :(
But, at least he's still happy and not complaining (other than the leg that he has said hurts ever since we left Walmart---not sure if he bruised it on something or what).
Another day in our already stressful lives... but, as always, God is good and is in control and taking care of us all.  This too shall pass.

P.S.-  I know I've already said that Jonah doesn't complain and he's tough as nails, but can I just brag a bit in that area about him?  For his blood work they had to stick him in both arms (couldn't get enough blood out of the first vein) and he never even flinched (as usual).  And just a minute ago, Jake pulled his loose tooth with no opposition in the slightest.  THAT'S our Jonah!
