from the mom
Ben's came down with croup Thursday night. Last night I noticed he was retracting badly and M went to the 24-hour pharmacy (20 minutes away) for Albuterol (which we hadn't had to use in a long time). Then he took him to the doctor this morning while I hosted my church ladies group (food made for it at 2am this morning).
I knew when the caller ID was the local hospital it wasn't good. The pediatrician took one look at Ben and called 911; M argued that he could drive him (the hospital is next door) and the doctor said he wasn't taking him off oxygen for that long. He has since been admitted. (No diagnosis yet but he obviously has restrictive airway issues.)
My grandmother's funeral is Monday in southern Oregon. There is a lot going on for us and M and I haven't really slept more than a few hours since Weds. night. (I did get a nap yesterday and so did M but naps aren't really cutting it.) Prayers are wonderful.

Prayers: of course you have our prayers! I hope Ben gets home today. If you can't leave for Oregon, then know that everyone understands that your kids come first. My thoughts and prayers to your Mom also.
