The past couple of days have been pretty rough for the Lelepali kids. First Makena and Christian came down with colds that have been getting progressively worse and then yesterday we took Kat in to get seen for an ugly cough and find out she may have RSV. The doctor says that by the time it takes to test for it we will already know from her symptoms so he is going to treat it as if it were RSV. Kat is about 4 weeks old so he wants to have us ccome in every day to get checked. If she starts to get really laborious breathing then he will meet us up at Primary Children's Hospital. That is worse case scenario and we are hoping that it doesn't get that bad.
This brings is to last night. Makena's cold appears to have turned into an ear infection. She was crying all night because of the pain. I felt bad because there was really nothing we could do for her besides telling her we would take her to the doctor in the morning. If that wasn't enough, Christian's cold started to bring his asthma out and he was wheezing like a broken accordian. We gave him his asthma treatment and then he feel asleep. Between Makena's crying, Christian's wheezing and Kat's fussiness and coughing I think we finally got to sleep around 4:00 in the morning. As much as I hate the Instacare, Angela has taken Makena there this morning because it's Sunday. Christian will most likely be making a doctor visit tomorrow along with Kat. Gotta love the cold/flu season!
