Have just seen this thread. Having been hospitalized for pneumonia a few years ago, I know that it is no fun at all. Sending lots and lots of get well vibes to Seth. I'll be keeping you both in my thoughts.

I do feel for you and Seth, going through this, and for the rest of the family too. I do hope that he is able to go home soon and fully recovers very quickly.

ok, another update
his temp is going back up again.It's 102.6 that is after him having motrin at 2:45
I am getting so frustrated with all of this.They say that his is the worst case of pnemonia that they have seen in a long time.
I am betting myself up and will until he is better. I think if only and why.But, as they say, I caught it as soon as he showed signs.
I am going to see what if anything I can do about the mis-diagnosis of him though.

The Nurses all say what a good boy he is.He's not giving them any trouble at all when they come and poke him in the morning for blood work.His Nurse just came in and did a nasal swab.They are checking to see if he may have RSV!!! That on top of the pnemonia.
I have a few pics that I will post of him as soon as we get out of here.
I forgot to add that his class all drew pics and made them into cards for him.It made his day to see all of those.
Thank you all for EVERYTHING!!!!!

He has a TV, plus Shawn went and bought him some Playdough,cars,a Bionical,coloring books and crayons.But, all he wants to do is sleep.They told me that tomm. the want him to atleast try and sit up in the chair for a few.So, I told Shawn to get him what ever he could that would encourage Seth to sit up.
I tried to get him to sit up for a few mintues,it lasted about 2 mintues and now he is sleeping again.
What aggrivates me,is you have 1 Dr saying 1 thing and then someone else comes in and says something else.

Sending many vibes to you. My SIL who suffered the stroke got pneumonia about 3 weeks ago and spend several days in ICU. She was taking the powerful antibiotics too. She pulled through okay and so will your little guy.
Hope you can get some consistent answers from the docs-he must be having a few on his case. Get some rest too-I don't want you to get sick !!

I have told them I will not leave his room either.I see the little one in his room being left alone alot and see how scared he is.I would never do that to any of my kids.I just couldn't.
They will do his next x-ray in the morning and then I will know something more.They also said the RSV test results I should have soon.But, to a Hosp. that has a ton of patients,soon could be a few hours.
I am still requesting a private room.Everytime I get Seth to sleep, the little boy with us--calls out for him Mom and she isn't here.

Tammy, I'm sorry to hear his fever has spiked back up a bit...they tend to do that in the evenings, and hopefully will come down again by the morning.

You've got one sick little son there, surely. We are sending lots of cyber teddy-bears, popsicles, chocolate kisses, and hugs to both of you. Stay strong, and don't forget about YOU!!!
