Croup Croup Please Go Away We Don't Want You Any Day


Poor Logan has the croup. He went to bed Wed night with a few questionable coughs that Billy and I were praying was not a sign of a bad night to come. Well it was a bad night. He was back up at 11 wheezing. Logan sounded terrible. I hate listening to him struggle so to breath. We gave him some medicine and then Logan and I spent some time in the steamy bathroom while Billy got the breathing treatment ready.(I am so glad we purchased our own nebulizer and do not have to go to the ER for treatments) Logan took his treatment without too much fussing. He then spent a few hours in his recliner sleeping in the living room while Billy slept in the "big" recliner. I could hear his breathing back in our bedroom. Poor little man. He did eventually end up back in his bed. He woke up and told Billy he was going back to bed and did just that :) His breathing sounded better yeserday as the day progressed and we are continuing to give him medicine and breathing treatments. He told me yesterday when he woke up from his nap that he was having "troubles" I felt so sorry for him. Last night his breathing was not as bad but he still was up a lot and sleeping all over the house. Throughout all of this he is happy and been playing like Logan. Today his cough is getting looser so I pray he will be better soon. Thankfully it has just been the breathing and coughing issues. His nose has been clear of drainage or stuffiness. So sorry this is so long but that is the story on our Logan. Also please pray that the rest of us stay well. So far so good.
