Sleep and sick kids..

I guess those two subjects dont go together...

OK, my son and I were up all night. Ok, I was up he was sleeping on my chest.. We all know that scenario dont we??

Anyway, we were at the doctor's first thing this morning. Sure enough Raging ear infection, still has a lingering cough from the pneumonia, but that is understandable. No wheezing thankfully. So it looks like the nebulizer is working. They gave him another shot of antibiotic, and put him on a different antibiotic Augmentin. And sent us home.

He is like a totally different kid now. Happy, playing, still a little snot (oops snotty) but much better.

T Update.


Thomas is doing better. Still coughing like crazy, breathing treatments every 4 hours, but he saw the ped this morning who sees some improvement, and wants him to come back Wednesday instead of Tuesday. His energy levels are coming back up which is good, his fever is finally coming down, but still wheezing and coughing up gunk... But its definately an improvement.

Sick baby...

Well I spent a fun filled day at the Urgent Care center for Thomas... LOVELY!! He and I got there at 1pm, and didnt get put into a room until about 4pm! Turns out he has an ear infection, an eye infection, a sinus infection, and Pneumonia! His chest Xray didnt look good and having asthma etc myself I have seen quite a few of those, He has more black foggy areas than the supposed to be white. The Dr gave him 2 antibiotic shots and a breathing treatment. We have to go back tomorrow for another xray and more shots, if he doesnt show improvement by Tuesday then they will probably admit him to Children's Hospital (CHOC).

He goes back tomorrow at 3pm unless I can get him in earlier with another doc. But if I go in at 3, I have to take 6 kids with me.. FUN NOT!! I feel for you Denise..

Anyway please keep my sick little 2 year old in your thoughts and prayers...
