Over the weekend, we thought that Cooper's lungs were filling up, so we pounded the neb. treatments to him. Yesterday morning when we woke up, the electricity was off in our Village. Cooper wasn't up yet, so we thought we were safe, but when he did wake up and the lights were still off, we knew we were in trouble. We figured we'd better get him to the ER just so we could give him a neb. treatment, but just then the lights came back on. Thank Goodness! We took him to the Dr. anyway because we thought he was definately getting worse. When we got to the Dr., she was worried that he was getting dehydrated, but she didn't want to put him in the hospital in Broken Bow, so she sent us to a pediatrician in Kearney. There, Dr. Psota said that he was not dehydrated, this lungs sounded good, and his blood work came back looking good, so we were not admitted to the hospital. She did however say that she wanted me to stay home with him the rest of the week, so that he doesn't spread anything or get anything. Which is easier said than done with having 2 school aged children! They bring home everything! We now have Germ-X by every sink in our house, so that after a cough, sneeze or the obvious, we wash and apply!
A big Thank You to Nurse Syndie! (Also Baby Collin's Grama!) You are great!We sure hope everyone else can stay healthy! My mother-in-law is sick now, which is not good considering her immune system is shot! Sorry Ma'Ma if we got you sick! We hope you feel better real soon!
I guess it's like J.P. always says, Vitamin C, a lot of fluids and plenty of sleep! Gosh he is a wise man!!
