Tucker's fever continued to hover around 101. We bedded him down on the floor in our room. I was up with him several times in the night, refilling his water, cooling his head, helping him to the bathroom. Tired at work today. Big inter-office meeting with so much of the staff in town. Watt had to miss it, to stay home with Tucker. Not that Watt minded.
