UPDATE
Well, it turns out it's neither Matthew's ears nor his throat. Gilbert took him to the doctor and by the time they got there the motrin was wearing off and Matthew's temp was back up to 102. The doctor checked his ears, mouth, and throat and all were clear. They drew some blood to run some tests and after all was said and done, they had no answers. The doctor thinks there's a chance it could be roseola but she's not sure. If he has a fever by the end of the week I need to take him back in.
The good news is he did finally ask for food but he wouldn't drink much. He's napping now but we'll have to get him up in about an hour to give him more medicine to keep his fever down.
Please pray that he continues to take food and that he begins drinking more fluids and that this fever breaks.
