More errrr. ER
It's been a week. Let's see.
Sunday night 10/23, we were all good. I had put B down for a little nap before his last bottle of the day. Brannan and I were watching a movie. The monitor all of a sudden erupted with the most horrific sound ever from B's room. I ran, scooped him up, and started compressions on his back. He had the Croup. It didn't take a few attempts at breathing for me to figure that out. I freaked. So back to the ER we went, but this time to the General on Bluebonnet. Indeed it was the croup. 1 hour passed, including a breathing treatment, a few new friends in the ER, and a 3-day Steroid for li'l man. We were out in no time. Nice job General. We picked you on a good night. He got a little better after the Steroid Rx, and we went to see Dr. Farrell on Thursday; only to find out that he no longer had the Croup. It had turned into something else, more like Bronchitis. :( Womp Womp Wommpp. Now the breathing machine sits in my living room. We get to use it every day. B was pretty much quarantined this weekend and we have to go back to Farrell in the morning. Hoping Halloween isn't ruined for him! Meanwhile, I haven't kicked this crap either. I was sick long before B, and went through an entire set of antibiotics, a cough syrup, a steroid pack and a nose spray. I woke up this morning with a sore throat....it's going on week 3 here. Not ok. I guess I need sleep? Or vitamins more like it...I know, bad Mom. I'll go take 'em right now. Happy Halloween everyone!
