A sad story

Noah has pneumonia. Option A was hospitalization. Option B was home on oxygen 24/7 for 3{ish} days. His O2 levels are hovering around 89 w/o oxygen. They should be over 94. We picked option B. I feel we had this option partly because of our *ahem* extensive background in the area of critical child care. At least there are some perks to knowing and understanding proper O2 levels.

 Here he is after a crying fit because of the oxygen tube in his nose.

The next morning...I had to bribe him to take Tylenol with a few minutes of freedom from the oxygen...NO JUDGING! It was worth every minute to see him smile.

 At his checkup today....feeling better, but still have to keep the oxygen on.

 Tonight....he is SO over the foreign object on his face!

P.S. If you have any idea how this child of mine functions, you should know that trying to keep oxygen on him is like tryin' to catch a greased pig. It ain't easy! But he is better today than he was yesterday. Lets pray that tomorrow shows the same progress.
