OK, you'll be glad there are no images of this, but we found out last night what has been making Joe so sick -- a very large snotball.
After a doctor initially said it was strep, but when antibiotics didn't knock the sore throat out, a second doc said the initial diagnosis was wrong and it was a severe viral infection of some sort.
We now think Joe's body identified a big snot ball as a virus.
He blew it out last night and yes, he made me look at it, and if I'd had the measuring tape handy it would have been around a foot in diameter. Actually, it was shaped a bit like a fig and was a bit larger than one. We suspect it had been growing with layer after layer of mucous for a few weeks now.
Painful coming out but, boy, did it feel good.
About 10 minutes after the expulsion he was running around the house like a kid he felt so much better.
Life is so strange sometimes.
