Viper Report post Posted April 8, 2006 Ben was ill with a virus of some sort recently. He hah a high temperature but I gave him all the meds to keep it down. He slept through the night so had no meds. When he woke in the morning he was laughing hysterically at the ceiling. I realised he was hot so I went to get him a wet cloth and some meds. He started shouting at me saying I should slow down and do things at a normal speed. Then he sat up and started laughing saying he moved really fast. I had to walk really slowly and he still said I was going too fast. The thing is all my kids have done this sort of thing when they are ill. Is it common or do I have odd kids. It's quite frightening when it happens. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tylers-mum Report post Posted April 8, 2006 Wow!! I have only just posted aboput T being ill and hallucinating. He has never done it before and when T is ill, you know it's serious and chances are, he'll be in hospital. Doesn't behave in an ill manner generally for like the flu, cold etc and is still running around etc. Strange child I have! Hope Ben is well soon. <'> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
