Camden was admitted into the hospital on Friday, December 4th. He had a very rough night on Thurday, so I called the Dr. as soon as they opened and we took him in to see what was going on. He hadn't been sick at all, so we weren't sure why he was so miserable all night! But, when we got to the Dr. his oxygen levels were low, his breaths per minute were very high and was wheezing very badly. He was showing all signs of Asthma, but he had never had a sign of that before so we were all very taken back by all of the symptoms. So, they did a few tests trying to figure out what was wrong and the verdict was "swine flu". At the Dr's office they thought that he may have pneumonia as well. So, they sent us straight to the emergency room. One of the hospitals around here has a pediatric ER so that is where we went! We spent a few hours in there trying to make his better, he wasn't improving the way they thought he should. So, they admitted our little guy into the hospital. Luckily, we only had to stay a day. He improved wonderfully with all of the treatment and medications. So, we were able to go home the next day. We had to do breathing treatments at home every four hours and monitor him. Its now Wednesday of the next week and we've finished all of the medications and he is feeling much better. We can still notice a difference in his breathing and breathes per minute, but he is 100% better than he was this time last week! Thank you for all of your prayers!! God was good to us and our little boy....He took awesome care of him!
