Isaac is sick; O2 back on

Dear all,

Isaac started getting a runny nose on Sunday and developing a cold. His cold slowly worsened throughout the week and took a turn for the worse this evening. We already called his ped earlier in the evening and will be bringing him into the clinic first thing tomorrow morning. He woke up around midnight crying and having difficulty breathing, with oxygen saturation levels at the high 80's and low 90's. Fortunately, we had not returned the Oxygen machine yet and so we could put supplemental O2 back on him. For a while, we had him on 2.0/Liter an hour and he was still barely hitting 95. I was ready to call the ped again thinking we have to bring him into ER. Fortunately, he fell back asleep and is now satting at 95-97 on 1.5/Liter an hour. Can you please pray that he is able to breathe for the rest of the night and if he needs medication, the doctor will prescribe him the right kind of medication tomorrow morning? Please pray that he starts getting better because I am pretty sure if he gets worse, we are looking at a hospital stay for him.

Thank you for your prayers. Please also pray that I can fall back asleep and get some rest before an early morning tomorrow.

I will update tomorrow.

Sonia

Isaac is so adorable!!! You are very brave to travel with him before the age of 2 (because of the RSV risk). We hope Isaac will be better. We will be praying for him!!!
