Mama texted Nanaw early Monday morning to tell her that Chase wouldn't be going to school because he was having long coughing fits. Mama asked Nanaw if she would be able to take Chase to the doctor if she could get an appointment. Nanaw said of course. Chase ate a little breakfast before they left but didn't drink his milk or eat the fruit Mama sent. When they got to the doctor's office, they learned that Chase's appointment had been accidentally scheduled for Friday. A very nice, helpful lady at the front desk was able to get Chase in. Chase weighed 93.4 pounds but they didn't take his height. First, they saw a young lady who was a resident at Washington University. Then a little later they saw Dr. DePalma, Chase's regular doctor. They did a strep test and a combo nasal swab testing for Covid, flu and RSV. All of the tests were negative. Around noon, Mama picked up his schoolwork from school. Five kids from his class including Chase were out sick so something must be going around. He ate a little chicken noodle soup for lunch then took a 45-minute nap. Then he was ready to do his school work. And as expected, there was a lot of it. He did as much as he could and then was going to finish it tonight. He didn't go to hockey practice. Nanaw had hoped they could watch Graceland Christmas today but there wasn't enough time. Maybe they can watch it sometime later this week.
