Mr. T. times 2... SCARY!


Yes, my boys love to play with all of their Great-Grandmother's necklaces while I am in the shower. Brian's grandma passed away five years ago and I always take the time to talk about her with the kids when they are playing with her things.

_____________________

Finally got to go to sleep about 9:30 p.m. Tuesday. What a long 2 days it has been. Everything was going fine until Monday when Noah started his asthmatic cough. We didn't think anything was unusual until he went to bed and his cough changed. At midnight he and I went to the E.R. After a chest x-ray, another breathing treatment and a steroid we were told that he had croup. We got home at 3:30 am. Since an asthmatic shouldn't be put in a steamed-filled room (that is the treatment for croup) we aren't left with a lot of choices other than steroid use. After a trip to his regular Dr. on Tues. he felt like it was either croup or asthma, and continue breathing treatment and steroid use for several days. ----------------- Wed. morning... He is much better and on the road to resume normal activities. Please keep him in your prayers as well as Camden that he will be spared the croup.

A side note: last night Brian, Noah and I had run out of gas but Camden had a full tank. I had gone to lay down and the three guys were watching a movie. While Brian and Noah slept Camden went exploring. (Big surprise!) When Brian woke up, Camden was holding the hand soap and was smelling quite good because he had pumped it all over himself. I guess he decided he was going to give himself a bath without the water.

Oh, Sharon, I'm soooo sorry about 2 days and nites without sleep. Glad Noah is feeling better. Hope you are able to get sufficient rest, too!

That Camden is a piece of work, but a clean piece of work! P

Sharon--I hope the boys are both feeling better, especially Noah. Poor little guy. Mr Soap Bottle sounds like Luke getting into stuff. So far Luke has been spared croup too. I'm listening for that "barking seal" cough though. I'm hoping I'll never hear it. I gave him some Triaminic tonight to clear his runny nose and cough.
