Last week...

was quite the week!
 
Ranen had quite a bad cold/cough which passed to Owen...
he seemed to take it pretty hard so I took him
to the walk-in clinic at our doctor's office.
Owen was busy crawling about, trying to walk from chair to chair
and I was thinking - why did I come here??  But I stayed.
Dr. Quentin Smith, so so fortunate to have him as our family doc!,
says to me "you need to take him to emerg!"
and I was like huh? he ain't that sick!!
(hospital phone shots...)
 
But yes, he has bronchiolitis (inflamed small airways in the lungs)
and if not treated it has the potential of turning into RSV.
So thankful for great knowledge and great help...
Thursday afternoon/evening turned into
chest x-rays, blood work and the nebulizer.
With a followup appointment on Friday morning,
to the pediatrician, Dr. Ebesh, we are now rigged up with a
nebulizer at home - 3x per day treatment for 10 days...
 
This is what it usually looks like:

evey treatment we have a few more moments like this....
Our little trooper!!

 Daddy has been crazy busy! first cut, grass planting, spreading manure,
cleaning chicken barns, plowing, etc etc
