My little cousin is 11 yo...last night before he went to be, he told his dad he had a belly ache and didn't feel well...he didn't have a fever or any other symptoms, so they put him to bed early and checked on him through the night. When they tried to wake him this morning to check his temp he was not responsive. My aunt, his grandmother took his fever and it was 104 degrees. They immediatley rushed him to the er...his "bellyache" was a ruptured appendix! He has toxic poisoning and is in critical condition. The crazy thing is this happened to me and my sister as well! Both our appendix were rupturing and other than the pain the typical symptoms of fever and high white blood count were not present. Poor Kid. I remember hoe awful that was. If you could, send some prayers and PD on up to Maine! Thanks!
