Glad to be home =)

We spent Wednesday and Thursday night in the PICU. Still never found out what went/is still going on, but they put him on steroids and antibiotics (which are burning his poor little hind end). I brought him into the pulm dr on Wednesday because I had called earlier that day and felt like he needed to be seen after they were just going to give me some meds over the phone. He was lethargic and breathing like 88 breaths per minute. He is a rapid breather anyway, but this was too fast. The dr thought he should be admitted. He tested negative for RSV and the flu. Since we've been home he is still having rapid breathing (not as fast) and still requiring O2. He hasn't been on O2 in months and even after surgery weaned right off of it. Now, as soon as his oxygen mask falls off, he desats to 86-89 and stays there. We thought he was all better from the cold he had way before Christmas, so I dont know if it just turned into something? Just keeping the pulse ox machine on a bit more now.
I am trying not to get fearful about his little lungs and just hoping that it was from the cold he had and thinking it just kicked his butt. Of course that scares the death out of me thinking what RSV could do to him. Ahhh, flu/germy winter season!!! I cant wait for spring.....
I can only pray that he will continue to grow stronger and stronger so that next time he can fight it even better. He sure tried his best this time and I think he did an awesome job. My little fighter...
