guess where we are........

Yup, inpatient at the local hospital...................UNBELIEVABLE !

Yesterday monring sebastian woke up at 5 am coughing like crazy, finally did fall asleep again. When we all got up, he had a fever, cough, nothing too, too bad. Took him to the doctor, left with a couple of RX's, nebs Q4, steroids, pretty "normal"

fast forward to this morning...........nebulizer.....not doing a whole lot of good, fever...........up to 39.7 under arm, belly breathing, retracting, nostrils flaring and on and off grunting.
RT came 45 minutes after a neb treatment, pulse oxygen.....89 %, which means a one way ticket to the ER. Once we were up in the room on peds, he really started crashing, in the ER he was on 2 L oxygen, upstairs he went to 3 then 4 liters and was barely hanging between 91-93. Grunting constantly, looking gray, so doc started talking about transfer to All children's intensive care, intubation, etc...........................he had us all worried sick !!

Around 4 pm he started coming around a little, fever going down a bit, actually opening his eyes, etc. Still very sick, but holding his own for right now. IV fluids, 2 antibiotics going, tylenol/motrin round the clock, nebs Q2.

Poor baby, he's such a trooper, he's sleeping, which is what i should be doing.................papa went to work tonight (after taking the day off, Oma went with me to carry/lift Basje) Oma went home ( driving all by herself) Oscar brought me the laptop, and some stuff I forgot (phone charger, clean underwear LOL)

Hopefully he'll continue to do good tomorrow, it would be nice if we can be home before the weekend !!
