sick.....
so last night at midnight I had to take Jake to the doctor again. He had woken up the night before with a fever and had a runny nose and couldn't really breathe. I gave him some tylenol and we hung out on the couch for a couple of hours. Then yesterday he was just a pitiful mess but I just thought that it was just because of his fever....but boy was I wrong. Before I tell you the rest I will just give a little history of Jake. When he was 2 months old he was hospitalized because one night when he woke up for his midnight feeding he could not breathe he had croup it was pretty bad they gave him some x-rays and saw that his airway was closing off. We had to take him to the hospital and stay there for close to 2 days. Then a month and a half ago he got croup again luckily that time he didn't have to go to the hospital but it was still bad. Lastnight when I got to the clinic we did chest x-rays and found out that Jake has bronchial pnemonia(sp?) so anyway he had to get a big fat shot of antibiotic and a big shot of steriods. My doctor thinks that Jake has the beginning stages of asthma and that is why if he gets a little cold it always turns into much much more so that pretty much sucks!! But hopefully he will grow out of it cause most kids do. But he is doing lots better today so we will just hope that his lungs can clear up!!

hey foff, that sucks for you and Jake, sorry!! I was just trying to see if I could figure out how to do one of these but i'm stupid. I finished those books, i need to call you. I've been busy painting so i haven't had time. Love you hope little Jakey is ok
Ahh...I'm sorry that your little guy is sick. Hopefully he will get feeling better SOON!
You had better let me know if you come to AZ next month!! I would love to see you..... :)
I am so sorry so hear about little Jake! That has to be really tough on you guys and him. I hope that he starts feeling better real soon! Good luck!
Poor Jake! I hope he starts feeling better soon. Hunter had croup last year too and it can be so scary! I hope Jake outgrows the asthma. Poor little guy!
Poor kid, I hope he's doing better. Zhoee had pnemonia last winter and it was definitly not fun. I wish I couldn't have gone over to visit you with Kels and my mom while you were in town. YOur little Averie looks so cute in her Christmas Dress.
My word, that is awful!! I cant believe that he has to go through that again, and you too. That is the pits. sorry foff.
How sad and scary! But not to worry because when he gets into Jr. High if he gets a cough all he'll need is a chug of Nightquil, it worked for his mom...well somewhat. About the Twilight books, as I mentioned to Amberlie, I need to catch up on several Anita Stansfield books, then I need to read a book by Dr. Laura and then maybe I will try and find the Twilight book. On a scale of 1-10 (1 being the worst, 10 being the best) what would you rate Twilight because I'm still not sold. **Remember how much you liked Anita Stansfield books?
