  • If your child is feeling better over the next 2-3 days, no further treatment should be needed
  • Call your healthcare professional right away if your child has any of the following:
    • Fever of 102.2°F (39°C) or higher
    • Fluid draining from the ear

Watchful Waiting (UPMC)

* Get away from the idea of "getting things done"
* We always have the sense of wanting to get it done
* This sense causes us to rush a little bit; cut some corners (that you *should* cut because you're trying to get stuff down)
* When you're cutting corners, you're not going to try to do something you don't know how to do
* Goal: shrink the gap between your day-to-day code quality and the ideal
* It's not practice that makes perfect - it's perfect practice that makes perfect
* Today is the day you write perfect code
* Focus on the 4 Rules of Simple Design
* This problem was picked because it's too big to finish in 45 minutes
* After the 1st session, walk around and ruthlessly mock their code
