It has been a few days since my last post so here is a quick update.
Junior's asthma has been flaring up pretty bad the past couple days so I am keeping those treatments going and praying we can keep it from turning into anything more.
At this point his sats are up and down a bit but he is moving air and doing pretty good clearing secretions. I gave him some prednisone yesterday evening and that helped with his wheezing and tightness.
Junior is a little cranky and gets mad at me for waking him up or interrupting his movie(story, playtime) for a treatment. Overall though he is still his happy self with plenty of smiles and giggles.
He saw the nutritionist yesterday and was up a couple more pounds with nearly no height increase. We cut calories again because a chunky face and neck(thats where Junior gains first) are not going to help with his airway and lung issues.
Poor Junior, he totally freaked out when we pulled into the parking lot to see the nutritionist. The building uses the same parking lot as the hospital and thats where he thought we were headed.
Thank you to everyone for the prayers for my brother in law. He ended up in the hospital a couple more days then they had hoped but is now home and recovering well.

Junior I hope your asthma clears up soon. Saying prayers for you!!!!
Noah always puts it on in his face first too. Hope his asthma settles down.
Oh here we go with the weather changes again. I'm all junky today too. My mom is working hard to try to keep it out of my lungs, which means she is annoying me:) Hang in there buddy:)
I think it must be the weather all over...gaaah...Dakin's on 02 tonight too. Feel better, Junior!
I'm glad to hear that your brother in law is doing better.
I agree.....I think it's the weather.....Evan has been on Nasonex, Alavert, Cutivate and Elidel for his allergies and eczema......The poor kid sneezes all morning and has "itchies" all in the folds of his elbows, hips and under his eye (his eczema favors his right eye for some odd reason).....
Hopefully this will all pass quickly.
I hope that Junior's asthma clears up soon. I know that the weather affects so many people.
Isn't it heartbreaking when they get upset as soon as you pull into the hospital parking lot? Poor babes.
I hope Junior is feeling much better. That's good to hear about your brother-in-law. Hey, Heidi, i didn't get your mailing address to send Junior a little something from Jojo and me. My e-mail is tedeleon@yahoo.com If you don't feel comfortable about it, I understand. TAke care!
