Poor Baby



I had taken Luke to the DR last week because he was coughing really bad but the DR said he had a cold and I should continue to give him the cough syrup, elevate his bed and use a cool mist humidifier. If he didn't improve I should bring him back. Well, he didn't. Now he had a runny nose and a congested head and chest. He hasn't slept well in a week now which means I don't sleep well. I was told this morning he now has bronchitis. They gave him a nebulizer breathing treatment in the office and sent us home with a nebulizer to give him treatments at home every four hours. Let me just say...he hates that thing!! He screamed somthing horrible at the DR office this morning while he had that mask on his face. The nurse said that its good if he cries because then we know he is inhaling the medicine. I just hope he feels better soon.

These are pictures of Luke taking one of his treatments. He just looks so pathetic that I had to post it.

And it's summertime!! Maybe that's the good thing, if he has it now, then maybe he won't get it in the dead of winter. David had that treatment stuff last November over Thanksgiving and I tell ya, I would just burst into tears over it, but like the Dr said, if they are crying, they are taking it in...how positive, right? :)
