They had us do a nebulizer treatment at the office...not fun. The pictures below do not even come close to depicting how unhappy he was with this treatment. He SCREAMED for the whole 10 minutes. I hope we don't have to do that again. They prescribed him a liquid medication that she explained is basically a liquid form of an inhaler; just to help him breathe better. She said it's viral and there are not antibiotics or anything to treat it, but these meds are just to help him get through it.
Below are some pics from at the doctors office last night....this is the most he's ever cried! I felt so bad for him. I remember having to wear the oxygen mask all day during labor; it's not fun!!!

I hope Justin feels better soon!
If you have to do the nebulizer again, ask if you can take the mask off and just have the nebulized stuff blow in his face. While we were in the hospital, the respiratory therapists all said that Noah was young enough that they could just point the tube at his face and blow it near his nose. So when we got home, I took the mask portion off of our nebulizer and just let the tube blow near his mouth and nose. He just has to breath in the nebulized medicine, so the mask doesn't make a difference. It does make it easier on older kids though. When Ava was 1 1/2 years, she had to have treatments, and the mask made it easier!
AWWW Poor little guy. Jalen and I will say some extra prayers that he feels better! P.S. the cute little purple pants he sent her now fit like hot pants... Daddy wasn't too happy that boys are sending her tight pants already. Ha Ha!
Miss you!
