Flu

My little one has H1N1 I have him on fluids via his feeding tube and just keeping him comfortable. I feel so bad for him he looks and feels so miserable. Just when you think things are going good for him something like this happens. He is strong and will pull through this like he does everything else. Hope everyone elses kids are doing good and stay healthy.

Matthew goes to school.

I took Matthew in to meet his teacher today it was a very sad but exciting day. I am sad my baby is growing up and heading to school but excited for him to get out and meet some kids. He is in a special class for kids with needs. So he will only be going for 3 hours to start and see how that goes. He has since found out he will need glasses in his near future, not a big surprise since we have a strong family presence of people needing glasses. Will get some pics up soon of his first day of school. Until then happy thoughts.

Matthew and daddys race car

Here is a picture of Matthew and his dads race car he loves to watch his dad race. He is also enjoying riding his pony (will get pics soon ). He had a fun weekend camping and fishing, camp fires, smores, playing, riding his bike and who knows all that we did. It was great!

A doctor who cares

Matthew got a new pediatrician today and he actually seemed to care about everything we talked about and seemed to be appalled by the way doctors here are treating him, to bad we still have to drive 200 miles (round trip)if something happens but atleast he listens and cares. So for once I am pleased with the out come of a doctor. He asked about concerns, questions everything he was great and an added plus he is very nice. Just wanted to post the good news. Hope all is well for all my friends and their loved ones. Be well and talk soon.

Doctors???

I am extremely irritated right now my son woke up and said he can't hear out of his left ear. So I call his ENT 3 hours ago and still haven't heard anything back. I am not a doctor but a 4 year old saying he can't hear and having pain in that ear is not freaking normal. You would think that someone would return my call even if it is a nurse especially with all his medical issues. I am so very frustrated right now I could scream. It is funny because he hasn't complained of any pain he says it hurts but he is not fussy or crabby. I'll tell you what though he sure talks louder lol.. but anyway just had to vent a little.

It never stops

Well as I said before he had croup and bronchitis and now we can't get rid of the bronchitis, it has been 2 weeks and he still has it. I feel so bad for him it seems to be one thing after another. We are doing breathing treatments every 4 hours and he has been on antibiotics for 2 weeks and will probably have to get the doctor to get him some more. Well anyway that's whats going on right now. Best to all.

Matthews 4

Matthew turned 4 on April 16th, they grow up to fast. He has croup right now so he isn't feeling the best. He finally weighs 30 lbs, still has the stints in his eyes and of course he still has his Mikey. One cool thing I haven't shared is last fall a guy gave him a pony of his own to love so he REALLY looks forward to seeing him everyday. We have noticed one side of his body growing slightly faster than the other and his face is getting more triangular, and for some odd reason he has been falling a lot. Well that's all for now. Here are a couple b-day pics.
