Mamma called the doctor and the doctor said...


BRONCHIOLITIS! Poor Ev is so sick. I took him in on Friday and the doctor said good thing I took him in. He just barely finished antibiotics for bronchitis and about 1 week later he began wheezing again. The doctor is concerned he may have some kind of asthma. He prescribed him an inhaler. The first time I used it on him was in the doc's office and Evan was not a fan. He screamed and cried the entire time, but he was a champ and didn't wiggle too much as I was holding him. We brought it home and every time we had to use it, he broke my heart. He loved switching the machine OFF, but wouldn't come near it to switch it on. After using it a few times, I decided to let him hold it. He did MUCH BETTER holding it on himself. What a sweetheart. Well, only to make things worse...the last 2 times I have used it he has had a horrible allergic reaction to it. He gets bright red with a high fever, very fast heart rate, super shaky, swollen eyes, and totally miserable. We are done using it...it scared me to death to see him like that. There really is nothing worse than seeing your kids sick. It totally breaks my heart. I take him in tomorrow for a follow up. Even when my little Ev is sick, he remains as sweet as ever. I love him with my whole heart! I had Shawn take a few shots of Evan being a big boy holding the inhaler all by himself. Too cute and sad all at the same time.
