Sick kid, Tired mom, Too much work

I have so much stuff to share.  But no time to do it.

Kai's little cough turned out to be a the pre-cursor to his seasonal croup!  I am now calling it seasonal croup as it seems it comes around in May and October.  Yearly. Blegh.  I am planning a meeting with his Paediatrician to discuss this, and hoping that somehow we can sort out a preventative.

Monday night he was fine, went to bed with a little cough, by 21:30 we were rushing out the door with a kid who is struggling to breath.  Two sessions on the nebulizer later at the ER they hesitantly sent us home. Now we are nebulizing him every 4 hours, and the he is having cortisone meds and some bronchodialators too.  Its ruff, all the meds make him wired as hell, and at the same time he is tired, but can't sleep, shame.  I hate this for him.  And a little for me cause I am dog tired! And hello! How do you keep a 2 year old from running around???

I was with him at home yesterday and today and tomorrow my mom is with him, and Friday Klaus will be off and home with him.

Being at home with him meant i missed a day of work, and already I don't have enough hours in a day.  So no sharing today. But I promise as soon as things calm down I have stuff to share! Stay tuned

xoxo
