Crazy Doctor Time

Eldin came down with a virus that is going around town - a simple fever virus. He was okay, but not eating well and so I took him to the doctor yesterday morning. He checked out negative on everything and we were sent home to monitor and work through it. Last night around midnight he woke up and was NOT good. He was having trouble breathing and after a small episode of his lips turning blue we were off to the ER. Once at the ER he cleared up and the doctors couldn't find anything wrong. The chest x-ray was clear and we were finally discharged to go home and...you guessed it...monitor him. We returned home around 5:15 am and at 7:00am he woke up with a nasty coughing and difficulty breathing. After talking to the ER and praying about it we helped him calm down and held out till after 9:00 to go the Ped. Dr. Thankfully he coughed for the doctor and we were told that he has the Croup. Dad went to work on 2 hours of sleep....I (mom) picked up a coffee and went to my job - mom & housewife. This has been a crazy 12 hours and we can continue to use all your prayers. - Thanks in advance :)
