Dd called this afternoon Jacob had started wheezing badly again so she called the Dr and they said to bring him in to the office today. They did a chest x-ray and that was clear. The Dr decided to give him three days of steriods and see if they can get this settled down enough to begin to see what the problem is.  Hoping this will help get him breathing better. So instead of seeing him this thursday will wait until a week from thursday hoping by then he is doing much better.


So keeping my fingers crossed this will help my sweet little boy. Sure wish grandma lived closer right now but I know his Mommy is taking really good care of him.

Mare, I hope that, by now, you've gotten better news and that he is resting more easily now. Steroids are kind of scary but they sure can help on a short-term basis. He should be feeling better pretty fast...and then you can get some sleep, right?

HI Kat


I will probably call Dd later today as this is her day off during the week. Yep steriods are scary but as you said on a short term basis they do a good job.


Sleeping better at night would be nice LOL


Love ya
