sick little one

You may remember that we took Jonathan to the doctor a couple of weeks ago for a cough. Well, it had become worse & he was running a little fever yesterday, so back to the doctor we went. My poor little one is sick. :o( Dr. Morgan thinks he may have RSV, she took a couple of nasal swabs (which Jonathan hated) and sent them off for testing. We'll know for sure on Wednesday. While in the office he received a breathing treatment, and he was such a good boy during. He sat pretty still while I held the mask on his face & didn't fuss, I was so proud of him. They sent us home with a machine & instructions to do the treatments every 4-6 hours. He was also given a prescription for amoxicillin (sp?) and predni-something-or-other (it's a steroid). I have to say, smelling the amoxicillin was definitely like stepping back in time, it smells exactly the same as when I was a kid. So far he doesn't seem to mind either medication, so that's a plus. I'm sure the fact that they have "yummy" flavoring helps tremendously.

Well, it's about time for another breathing treatment before we put him to bed. If you think about it, please say a little prayer for the little guy...
