Croup

Monday night, Troy was extremely unhappy all night. You could tell that he did not feel well. We were up and down with him from 9-11:30 and Brian finally just got up with him around midnight. He noticed that he was having a hard time breathing. I got up then too and we debated what to do. I finally called the nurse and she listened to him breahe over the phone and suggest that we go ahead and take him to the emergency room...so at 1:30, we drove to Children's Hospital downtown. They were extremely nice. Several nurses listened to him and the doctor finally decided he had croup. We got home around 4:00 am. Brian stayed home with him the next day while I went to work. I somehow managed to function at work with 2 hours of sleep. Oh the realities of parenthood!
