As many of you know, Micah was in the hospital last week for bronchiolitis. He has had problems with wheezing the last 2 colds he has had this winter, but this one was much worse. They think he has asthma and has since been started on asthma medication so hopefully this does not happen again. I took him to his pediatrician on Tuesday for wheezing with a cold he had woke up with that morning. His oxygen level was low in the office, and did not improve much with breathing treatments. So they sent us to the ER where they gave him some strong meds and he was stabilized and discharged within two hours. That evening when the medication began to wear off he started to have problems breathing again, and I had to take him back to the ER. From there he was admitted and ended up having to be put on a vent for awhile and transfered to the ICU Wednesday night. By God's grace, Micah quickly improved, and by Thursday evening was starting to look more like himself. We were able to leave the hospital on Saturday. It was wild to see how quickly kids can get sick, and then rebound. We are thankful for all of your prayers, meals, and support. My mom coming down to help us for a couple days which was a huge blessing. Micah is back to his spunky self and getting into trouble as usual. I realized how much I love his inquisitive personality, even though it keeps me busy every minute he is awake.
