Ok, I am sure most of you know, but just in case you dont; we got home Saturday from a luxurious (not really) getaway at the 5 start resort OLOL. Madden started two weeks ago with a bad cough....doc started him on breathing treatments when needed but saturday night they got severely worse. We took him to the ER (after calling the after hrs nurse) Sunday night and he was admited and we spent 7 wonder (sarcastic) days in the hospital.
He was put on Oxygen (was taken out tuesday) and given breathing treatments. He was tested for pertussis and RSV - He eneded up having Bronchiolitis - just as common as a cold but can get bad if not caught early.
We had a wonderful group of nurses (give or take one or two) and all in all our stay was pretty smooth. Other than one incedent where the lab tech grabbed us up and when we got down to the xray room she realized she grabbed the wrong kid - Madden was screaming and I was pissed - Oh, and this was the day I was by myself!
I just want to thank all our family who helped out - yall are awesome!
So we are now home (still contagious till the end of the week and only to babies) and he is talking up a storm like nothing ever happened - or maybe he is telling all his toys about his interesting expereience.
Either way...it is so rewarding; especially when you are exhausted!
Love yall
Em
