Thrush

thrush

Sounds like fun huh? That's the latest episode in the Quin saga. Want to know what else sucks? It infects mom...right where the little man gets his dinner. I'll let you do the math and tell you that it's painful. We don't know where it came from, but it's common. Elizabeth called the doctor and he didn't even need to see her, he just called in a prescription after talking to her on the phone. Then she called the pediatrician, and they did the same for Quin.

He doesn't like his medicine!
