Just catching up with this thread - having had pnuemonia three times now, I know how scary it can be. ADding my thoughts and vibes to everyone else's - remember that positive thinking brings positive results, so think good thoughts and put your faith in the medical staff. Many
ok new update
Seths temp went down to 100.3 right now.He had a rough night with very little sleep.
We had the room to ourselves--considered Private.Until they brought in a little boy.I paid for the room to be private so that we could have some peace,but they are full.
They are concerned still as they still do not hear any air moving on the right side.Seth is favoring that side still also.....meaning he is leaning over that way because it hurts so bad.His breathing will not stay down,so now he is not allowed to have anything to eat.Not that he has eaten much anyways.But, knowing you can't eat makes you want to.
He's not able to get out of the bed to walk around because his heart rate goes up way to high and way to fast.So, he's been stuck in the bed for going on 4 days now.
We are giving the antibiotics 24 hours and will repeat the chest x-rays every day.If he isn't responding to this new anti. then they will add yet another one and then the chest tube,gets that much closer.
I appreciate everyone and their prayers more than you will all ever know.As soon as I am able to go home, in about a week they say, then I will post pics of my baby boy here in his bed.
Thank you.As for me, I've gotten a few PMs asking about me.I will be just fine as soon as he is ok.I have went on little sleep and know that I can and will be ok.
HUGS you all
