So warm, can't sleep
Lucas spiked a 100.8 at 12:30am. He felt warm and was hovering around 100 all day. Nurse assured me that his other vital signs all look good and she would recheck at 4am. I woke up 2:30 and again felt he was super warm to my touch all over his body. I was so scared and shivering when I took his temp. And it turns out to be 99.8. I walked out to talk to nurse and she said a lot of the kids on this floor do that -- feels warm but no temp. I don't think I will be able to fall asleep until he doesn't feel so warm again.

You will need to take some rest yourself. One rule of thumb (may not be accurate sometimes), check the back of his neck to get a rough idea of kid's temperature. Hope that Lucas will be fine soon. It is a tough battle.
