RSV
I am sick. I have RSV which led to me getting an ear infection in my left ear and getting Bronchiolitis. Since Friday I had a low grade fever of 100.5 and a cough. The last two nights I have not slept well waking up every hour or two. Well this morning I decided to finally get my mommy's attention by wheezing and breathing faster. Finally she thought I should visit the doctor! Went I went in they hooked me up to a sats monitor and my oxygen level was only 88% (good would be above 94%) They didnt believe that number because I am so handsome and was smiling at the nurses. But after double checking, it was true. They put me on Oxygen and gave me a breathing treatment of albuterol. My sats after an hour or so was 92-95% on 0.5L of oxygen so they said I could go home, but I have to go home on Oxygen. I also have to do the breathing treatments every 6hours, take a steroid and an antibiotic for the ear infection. I go back tomorrow to the doctor - hopefully I am way better and dont need the oxygen any longer.
Me getting my breathing treatment - tricky nurses blow it past a pacifier!

Poor little guy. Hope he's better soon.
Let me know what they say tomorrow.
It's heartbreaking to see him hooked up to the O2 but he doesn't seemed phased by it...Hope you all have a good night and good news tomorrow! xoxoxomomxoxoxo
Even sick you look good!
Hugs and prayers, Grandfather
