Spring is Here


Sigh. It is so sunshiny outside, and I love it! So far Spring Break has been less relaxing than I had anticipated, so this gorgeous weather has me cheered up. Owen Ray had a recent bout with Scarlet Fever, and I thought we were done with our health issues for awhile. Monday, however, Chandler had an icky cough. We read up on newborns and coughs and found out what signs to look for that would prompt a visit to the doctor. Wednesday, those signs arrived. Chandler woke up wheezing and whistling,definitely more than an innocent cough. At the pediatrician's he was tested for RSV and came back positive. They suctioned him and gave him a breathing treatment then sent me home with a nebulizer to do breathing treatments from home.
The good news is... he improved dramatically and seems to be happy as can be.
This week I am thankful that God is the Great Physician and that He has given people gifts of discernment and healing, specifically Chandler's pediatrician :)
