Today I'm thankful for ibuprofen.  SSP spiked a 104-degree fever in a matter of 45 minutes, so I took him to immediate care.  The wait time was supposed to be 1 1/2 to 2 hours! Worried that his fever would continue to climb, I ran to the pharmacy and snagged some ibuprofen.  Within 15 minutes, his fever broke!  His fever had been so high, that he had started to hallucinate (he was talking about things being 'dark') and he was unable to keep his balance standing up.  I don't know what I'd do without modern medicine...  This is him goofing off in the exam room after a doctor-approved double-dose of ibuprofen:
