Our Sammy is Sick
It's true. Our little man has RSV, meaning he is having a hard time breathing and is coughing a lot. The really yucky part is that he doesn't have any desire to eat. When he started that, we knew it was time to take him to the hospital. Pete took him in on Friday evening and he's still there now, Sunday morning. Poor thing. He's eating a little more, but it's very little. He wanted to nurse yesterday but couldn't stop coughing long enough to do so. He's getting nutrients through an IV and occasionally gets a little help with his oxygen. Please pray that he'll start eating today and that he'll be able to come home very soon. The virus needs to run its course, but it can do that at home as long as he eats. I'll update here when he does get to leave. Thank you!

Oh no! I hope he is feeling better and able to come home soon. Even though he's in the hospital he still smiling in that picture!
ReplyDeleteThank you! We're so happy to have him home now. :)

ReplyDeleteThank you, Mackenzie! As soon as my thesis is finished, I would love to get the boys together. Hopefully all this snow will be gone by then!
DeleteOh you're welcome and we'd love to get together with you also! But school work is important :) Being a college wife-y I know how that goes :) And let's hope the snow will be gone soon.By the looks of it, we're supposed to get more snow the next few days. But we can always hope! Shoot me an email when you're all finished with your thesis and have some free time!
