here i am, on 2 hours of sleep after staying up all night working lastnight. our poor little guy is sick. AGAIN. he's had this ongoing runny nose & cough pretty much since july, right?...well, he's also got his 3rd ear infection since July (if you want to get technical, i would consider it his 4th since the 2nd one he's had lasted forever & we had to get a second dose of antibiotics for it...). he also developed a really nasty cough progressively over the past 5 or 6 days and yesterday his breathing started to honk. literally. luckily he doesn't have a fever, doc said it's not like bronchitis or anything but his lungs are really rattling when he breaths. we got a breathing treatment at the doc's, no progress though. so, *sigh* he's on more antibiotics for his ears, and...steroids for his lungs to open them up. it's one of those things where i am completely torn - i feel terrible for having to give him steroids, but if he doesn't take them, this sickness could develop into something more & i don't want that to happen to the little man...
i would've never wished this much sickness upon any human being, let alone my son. i wish there was something more i could do for him. we're just praying for a strengthened immune system for him...
so this is life...2 hours of sleep in 32 hour period so far...and i have to work tonight...atleast i get to sleep all day tomorrow thanks to grammy... : )
