On the Mend

 They checked him out as I held him and he finally fell asleep after they gave him tylenol and steriods.
 Took the mask off and kept an eye on his stats

I asked about a chest xray and they said it didn't sound like pnemonia so they weren't doing one and that it was viral so no antibiotics.  Part of me knows they are against antibiotics but he's had cold for over 2 weeks?? I figure if he's still bad I will talk to the pediatrician and get some.  He has to go back for a follow up anyway.  She was going to send him for a chest x-ray and I think thought they would do it.....  so since he was doing better they sent him home.
They are calling it Reactive Airway Disease  (RAD) and a viral infection. We will see,
