Today is Thursday. Well 1 hour left of Thursday and here I am still sitting in the hospital PRAYing that my son will get to go home soon! We don't know what tomorrow will come but we do know that he will get better! Slowly and surely he will get better!
He has been on oxygen and a nebulizer treatment every 3 hours while in the hospital. He is progressing well! SLOWLY and slower than they would like but he is getting there. One of his lungs is struggling to get better at the rate that they would like so they recently put him on a steroid and a bronchial medication to speed it up. Doctors are happy with that and they have slowly started taking down the oxygen they give him! Today we had a moment when they TOOK him off the oxygen all together. Well his oxygen levels dropped way below and his heart rate elevated to 180. He was put back on and we have had a rough evening with a screaming baby! He is finally sound a sleep and i sit here listening to his deep breaths and the monitor beep at a steady pace.
I had a breakdown yesterday morning. Momma cannot fix this one. I cannot kiss the boo boo and make it all better. There is no magic medicine that will make this all go away! We site and wait. He is in the best place that he can be but it is so hard on my heart to watch my son go through something that i cannot take away from him. My prayers to God have changed this week and I realize i take things for granted! Norm and I have a wonderful life with our kids. We struggle money, weight, religion, the normals. But we have a wonderful family that makes us who we are. You don't need the new fancy car or the fancy name brands. We just need each other!
Our HOPE is to be out of here MONDAY but i cannot say if that will happen or not! I appreciate all the prayers that i can get.
My little man is tough and I know we will leave as soon as he is better!
Momma will make it better with hugs, kisses and giggles!
