A.M. Update

Good morning, all!

This morning, Kreid is doing about the same as last night... which is not bad, and not great. He is getting "enough" oxygen that they are not concerned, but he is still working really hard to get it. When he wakes up is when it is at its worst. He has retractions in his chest and coughs a lot. He is still wheezing when they listen to his chest, and he's still pretty congested. All that being said, he will probably be discharged this afternoon, if he stays the same or gets better, simply because again, he's getting "enough" oxygen. I can't say I am totally comfortable with that, but he will have a follow up appointment tomorrow with his pediatrician, so that makes me feel a bit better.

On a good note, he is really happy and playful when he is awake, but is sleeping a ton. I am sure it is exhausting to be in the hospital when you are only six months old. On another good note, daddy should be here to scoop him up this afternoon. YAY!

So, for the time being, all is looking up. They do not seem to be worried about him, so that eases my anxiety. And every time I see his sweet little smile, I feel ten times better. Please continue to pray for him, ESPECIALLY if we go home tonight, that there will be no complications, and no middle-of-the-night ER runs.

Again, I cannot thank everyone enough for all the loving support, and I completely appreciate all the offers of help, prayers, phone calls, text messages and well wishes that we have received. It is all so much appreciated, and means so much to me. God bless each and every one of you.

Sending my thanks, and my love,
Delilah
