One Sick Little Boy....

Last Sunday is when it all started. I noticed at church that Kohen had a dry, hacking cough. Then next day a runny nose. This continued all week but rather than take him to the dr and risk getting exposed to something worse, I tried treating the symptoms at home. He didnt have any fever and didnt act like he felt bad at all. I was giving him cough medicine and that seemed to help. Until.....Sunday morning when he got up he ran to me, just like always. As soon as I picked him up, I could feel how HOT he was. He felt like he was burning up with fever. It was only 101, which is high for Kohen because he never runs fever. So we stayed home from church waiting on 1:00 to get here so I could call sick-call for an appt. He stayed in my lap all morning, so I knew he felt terrible. When we got to the dr, I told him the whole saga. He listened to Kohen and said the words I have dreaded for 2 and a half years....."He had pneumonia in his right lung." WHATTTT!! I just knew it was broncitis or strep or something of that nature. I never dreamed he had pneumonia!!! I felt terrible!!! He got 2 Rocephan shots and oral antibiotics. The dr said if he is not better by Wednesday to bring him back. He didn't eat anything on Sunday, drank a milkshake on Monday and finally today he ate some chicken nuggets. I would have given him anything he wanted just to get him to eat. I even tried M&M's!!! His color looks much better today so hopefully he is on the mend!!!
