Well, it's official... all my worry was worth it. My son, Jeffrey, was recently diagnosed with babesiosis and chronic Lyme disease. He'll start treatment soon. It will be a challenge. Not many 5 year olds like taking 3 kinds of meds twice a day, and in liquid form (yuck!).
He's tired and cranky. His attention is sometimes pretty bad, as is his patience. He whines, he wets himself and he gets headaches and knee pain. Fortunately, none of that lasts all day long, so there are still plenty of opportunities for the fun-loving, extremely smart and creative little boy to play and be silly.
It's hard to keep up with him, whether he's having a good day or a bad one. My own Lyme and Babesia wear me out.
