Buffista parents, would you take a child to the ER for a 104.5 fever but no other symptoms (apart from perhaps being sleepier than usual, but that's a hard one to gauge)?
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

urgent care for sure, but E rarely runs a fever.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Not a parent, but I'd be worried enough about anything over 102 to seek medical care.

Because books.
Absolutely, Kate.

Thanks, everyone. She's had a few fevers that have come and gone pretty easily, but this is the highest she's ever had and I'm worried. M just picked her up from daycare and is on his way to the ER now. Ugh ugh ugh.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yes, a fever that high can cause problems in and of itself.

Little kids can run much higher than adults safely, but that's a number worth checking out, I think.

I found out today that today is my Friday. We lost an office worker last week and therefore we are down one person to cover the days around Christmas. I semi-volunteered to move days since I was not traveling anywhere, so now I will cover the 23rd and 26th if we have work, but I am off the rest of this week on my vacation days. My plan is to do ALL OF THE THINGS IN MY HOUSE.

Also, it is snowing like crazy, but I think not accumulating too much yet? No one is ever getting home tonight.
We are getting that overnight and I am hoping it is terrible from 5-7 AM so there might be a chance for a snowday. Especially since our boss has bookended our Xmas lunch with meetings giving exactly an hour for to go to pub, eat lunch and get back to the office. I didn't want to do the lunch, but it was cleverly boxed in so I couldn't avoid it.

Oops story continued: spoke with boss lady and ED. BL said she didn't tell intern that trip for her was cancelled, ED showed me the text he sent that explicitly stated that intern should still go. Now to drag out of the intern when she comes in why she told me that BL told her that the ED cancelled the entire trip. Either she misunderstood, or BL blatantly lied to her for whatever reason (to make intern hate the ED?).
