Hello ER!

This is Woman's and Children's Hospital of Buffalo.....
This is also were we spent about six hours of Sunday!
Poor little Lukey wasn't feeling good but we just thought it was Teething! Well No it wasn't! He was having a hard time breathing and so we called his doctor and they suggested a little trip to Downtown Buffalo! So we went to the ER. Poor Luke got a thermometer where the sun don't shine, and that was just the beginning! Then they got us a room and gave him a look over they ordered a Chest X-ray, and then they gave him a Nebulizer treatment, then he passed out he was so tired, and of course that is right when they decided to come give him an IV, Well that didn't fly, he had a fit and they couldn't get the IV in so they just took blood and swabbed his nose which Adam said is when he lost it! Then he was wired and played for a while and then finally fell asleep!
Well after hours, they tell us that he has Bronchitis and pneumonia! So they gave him an inhaler, and a steroid and an Anti -biotic! And he HATES the anti- biotic! He likes the inhaler and mask, like the one pictured, but he likes it because he wants to CHEW IT! Crazy boy!
So we got home at about 12:30 and thankfully our friends and neighbors the Axtells watched Allie for us so she had a sleep over. I am so glad that is over! Luke is feeling a bit better and hopefully will just recover very fast!
Keep him in your prayers please, poor little guy! He is the sweetest boy Ever, he was very good for getting so poked and prodded! And this morning he was so sad when he woke up and Allie wasn't there! He looked all over for her! But they are together now and Allie is glad to see her brother again! I guess she went to bed but kept saying she wanted her Momma! And this morning when she woke up she went into the room and said OK Everyone wake up!
What a crazy girl!

Oh! How sad! Is the mask he has to use called an "Aerochamber"? Halle had to use that back in January with a steriod that you puff into it...like an asthma inhaler that you spray into the chamber and they breathe it! Is that the same? I'm so sorry, I feel so bad for him. Give him lots of TLC and a hug from us!
