It was a beautiful sunny afternoon. The Hospital was vary busy. Melman & Alex were in a clinic exam. a 5-year old cub who has wax build up in her ear. Melman was using the otoscope to look in her ear. It's wax build-up all right. Were going to have to flush it out. The cubs look nervous. I-Is it going to hurt? Ask the cub. A little. It's like having water rushed in your ear after you go swimming. Melman look at Alex. Alex can you fill 60cc syringes with sterile water & get some towels. The cub look frighten. Alex went to the supply room & got 2 60cc syringe & a bottle of sterile water & some towels. Melman gave the cub a paper gown to wear. Alex got back to the room & prep the syringes & wrapped towel around the her neck & asks Alex to hold the tub against her ear. Melman pushed the syringe to her ear & water started to flood in her ear. The cubs started to cry. After the second syringe, A giant ball of wax came out of the tub & her ear was bleeding so Melman had to use the suction unit on the wall to suck blood out of her ear & exam. her ear with the otoscope. It was infected so Melman wrote up a prescription for ear drops to give to Mom.
Alex came home from work. Gia came up to Alex. Honey, There's something wrong with Kimmy. Kimmy came downstairs. Daddy, There is a red spot on my neck. Alex took his exam. light & exam the dot. That's a rash on her. Alex felt her forehead. Go upstairs. I'll call Melman.
Melman showed up with his Doctor's bag & went up to Kimmy's room & exam. her. Melman came downstair told them that Kimmy is getting the measles.
That night, Alex tucked her in & took her temperature & gave her a fever reducer to take with some water.

He took her temperature, Blood-pressure, Listen to her tummy with the stethoscope & felt around her tummy & ask if anything hurts. She says all over. Melman gave Alex a bottle of lotion to apply on her skin ever 3 to 5 hours. Melman looked in her throat & ears.
