Landon's New Accessory

Gosh darn it...this winter has been such a pain for us Hampshire's this year. There has been someone sick non stop for the last few months in this house!! Well this time it is Landon's turn and he was sure to top us all! On Tuesday night he started with a fever of 102 and throwing up twice. Then on Wednesday morning he seemed to be doing better...no fever but then started with a horrible cough later that day. His lungs sounded like there was a truck in there. For the second night in a row he was up all night screaming crying so I new this poor baby was not doing well at all! I took him to the Doc first thing Thursday morning and they tested him for RSV (negative) Strep (negative) the Flu (negative) ear infection (negative) so they said it was just a nasty cold. There is so much fluid in his lungs (that is why he sounds like a truck when he breathes in and out) they said we needed to put him on this breathing machine 3 times a day for 15 minutes for a week. Well we are on day 3 of the machine and no major improvements yet except for that he is finally sleeping again! His lungs do sound a little better but he is still miserable. It makes my heart hurt to see kids sick especially a baby that you can do so little to make it better! We are just cuddling him a lot and dancing around being silly to make him smile. Get better sweet boy...xoxo!!
