Today was the first day that our pediatrician’s office was offering the H1N1 injection. Carlos and Trey got the H1N1 mist a couple of weeks ago, but poor Levi always gets the short end of the stick when it comes to vaccines. Since he has asthma, he can’t get the mist because it contains a live virus so it’s always a shot for him. Let me tell you, there is nobody who gets more worked up about shots than Levi, it’s traumatic.
So we went to our pediatrician’s “flu clinic” right at 2:30PM this afternoon when it started and didn’t get done until after 4:30PM. You would have thought Hannah Montana was performing in there, the line wrapped around the building. After waiting for 2 hours, it was Levi’s turn. It wasn’t pretty but it’s now done and over with….wait….until he has to get his booster in a month. It’s better than the alternative, though, I’m guessing he’d be hospitalized if he actually got the virus.
I do have to say that the staff at Bainbridge Pediatrics was awesome, as usual. With so many people waiting for so long (and a line still wrapped around the building when we left) they were still smiling!
WAITING…..
