What a night. My poor baby girl. Ben had croup last Friday the doctor said it wasnt bad and gave him one dose of a steroid and said things should be fine. Well Ben was kind of crabby for a couple of days but all in all not too bad. Well then Monday me and Faith kind of started feeling icky. I had a sore throat, sore neck, kind of tired feeling. Faith was just kind of crabby. Then yesterday I started sneezing, throat still hurt, tired. Faith started that croupy barking cough and was running a fever. Well we just kind of dealt with it. I went to bed about 10:30, Faith woke up at about 11:30 she couldnt catch her breath, throwing up, wheezing, coughing, burning up. Scared me half to death. I took her to the hospital at around 2:00 am. They gave her a breathing treatment and did xrays. Poor thing has pneomonia and an ear infection in her left ear, plus croup. They were going to admit her but her oxygen levels went up and her heart rate slowed down and her fever went down. We finally left there at around 5:45 I dropped her prescriptions off and ran by lamars. Now I wont have to worry about breakfast for the boys and I will pick her prescriptions up around 9:00 just in time to do another treatment. They sent me home with 3 prescriptions. I have to give her a breathing treatment every 4 to 6 hours and if anything gets worse get her back up there and they will admit her. Oh my gosh. She is now sleeping. SSSSSHHHHH nobody make any noise. Now I get to try and make it through the day on just 45 minutes of sleep. Hopefully a nap will be available for me.
