Autumn is home from hospital

[Guest guest]

Hi all. thanks for all the thoughts and prayers for Autumn. She

came home yesterday and is doing better. She is breathing much

better and is on home treatments of steroids and albuterol for a

little while. It was a pretty scary and exhausting time. She is down

a pound now, back to 16.5 and it takes forever to get her to gain,

she's still not eating well, but is eating some and drinking.

Periactin doen't work for her so no luck there, but thank goodness

for cheese puffs! Summer got to stay with me in the hospital room

and between her crying and Autumn being miserable and comforting them

and having nurses give her treatments, oxygen and monitors beeping

etc, i don't think I ever slept! I'm sure you all know what that is

like. We are now catching up. Autumn slept 14 hours at night, 5 hour

nap, and 2 hours later back in bed, She also finally has the full

blown cold that caused this athsma attack when it started. I am soooo

tired of hospitals, between her stay and Summer's 2 stays since

birth, I have been there 2 combined weeks out of the last 8 weeks. I

never want to see it again....here's for hoping!
