And the prognosis is?

Today was Em's first full day back to school since recovering from strep throat, and apparently she still has illness on her mind. This afternoon, she noticed I was a little "icky looking" and decided to get her doctor's kit and investigate. Turns out I have a temperature of 46, no reflexes and "very dark ears." Dr. Emma handed me the below prescription and instructed me to take two "teez-spoons" of orange medicine twice a day.

(Translation: "You have to go to the Walgreens to get medicine to take home.")

Thorough exams, house calls, extra TLC and no HMOs...it really pays to have a doctor in the family.
