My man doesn't know how sexy he just looked to me...
Picture this if you will...
Handsome man carrying baby carrier with really cute baby (Nathaniel)and a baby blue diaper bag over his shoulder as he gets in the car to go to the doctor. Yes, my man is taking the baby to the doctor.
Well they both needed to go and I went with Cheney this morning. She has some kind of bronchial infection. John has finally gotten his bronchial thing he gets every spring only now in the summer and Nathaniel has a temperature and runny nose and cough.
Somehow we had a credit at the doctor's office so we didn't have to pay for Cheney's appointments but her prescriptions were $88. I think I need to do some research on an insurance policy that covers medications. I am hoping the antibiotic kicks in so we don't have to go get the steroid that the doctor said we will probably need. She said to wait 24 hours to see.
I had just told the Doctor last week at Nathaniel's well check that we had made it through the spring without our normal allergy induced infections. I was so excited. I almost feel like if I hadn't said anything we wouldn't have had to deal with them. Now I am sure it doesn't work like that. I almost feel like God said, "You're a little to cocky there missy." And pow...we were hit full swing. It is funny how we as humans want to blame it on something. Or maybe that is just me. I feel like I need to know where we got it. I have been racking my brain about where Cheney was last week. She started with the cough on Friday night but she was home with me all week long while the big kids were out doing soccer camp and VBS. Maybe it is the rain making the mold and mildew bad around here. OK..OK...I am going to stop.
I just need to focus on having a sweet attitude. I am wondering if we can get well enough to have Layton's b-day party here on Thursday. She will be so disappointed if we have to postpone but I told her postponing is better than just cancelling it all together. I suppose we all need to learn patience and a grateful heart in our circumstances.
Oh no!
ReplyDeleteActually I have plenty of steroids and a nebulizer, pulmicort, albuterol, you name it...all that stuff they prescribe for bronchial issues. I am happy to share! Please don't spend the $$$. I have tons. Call if you need anything!
Sometimes it's the air quality that spurs it. It may not have even been anything contagious that started the whole thing. And then some kids airways are just more sensitive so it immediately turns into bronchitus/pneumonia in like 1 day! Yes, I have one of those children!
oh man - hope you all get well!
ReplyDeleteJust remember the colds will go away, but you'll still have your sexy man!
ReplyDeleteHope y'all start feeling better soon!!!
I love it when I see my man carrying around the kids - there is nothing better! It seems like my kids always get sick around their birthdays and Christmas. I hope you all feel better very soon! We need to meet up at the park one day :)
