Our Hospital Stay so far

Here is my little monkey on Saturday before all this mess started.



I caught my two favorite guys snoozing on Sunday evening. This is the day the dreaded cough started. Landon slept most of Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.




This is Landon on Thursday afternoon. He's been so much more alert than he was earlier this week. Landon did well on his own for a while, but the need for him to be put on oxygen and receive breathing treatments happened Thursday night. The first time he received a breathing treatment he stared at it the whole time trying to figure out what this mist coming at his face was. It was so cute!



However, the next breathing treatment was in the middle of Landon pitching an all out fit because he was hungry! At least we know he breathed a lot of the medication in!

They put Landon on a low amount of oxygen Thursday night because his levels kept dipping when he was sleeping. He ripped both sides of the tube off within 10 minutes and then was very upset because the tape had just ripped off of his face! It took a few tries, but a pro nurse finally got the tape right and he hasn't had a chance of ripping it off since. Ouch!


It's now Friday evening and Landon definitely feels better. He's very alert and having his usual "fussy time" in the evening. He's eating like there's no tomorrow and breathing without any trouble. If Landon does well tonight and his oxygen levels don't dip while he's sleeping, we'll be able to go home tomorrow afternoon and take care of Landon from home. Pray that this happens! We are very ready to go home and get some rest. All of Landon's tests are continuing to come back negative, including a chest xray for pneumonia. Halleluiah!


More updates to come...
