Our poor little guy was admitted to the hospital Saturday night after being pretty darn sick since last Monday. We had him at the doctor on Wednesday, and finally took him to the ER Saturday night concerned that it had gone on for too long after the limp, tired little boy had his temperature spike up pretty high once again...and looked pretty bad for being such a cute little man! It turns out that he has pneumonia and influenza A (which they told us is probably H1N1, but they can't officially tell us that until the test comes back in another day or so).
Today his vitals are doing better, but he's still not interested in eating or drinking. They increased his fluids a little and the doctor said they want to see him with a bit more of an appetite and definitely drinking some more before they send him home. We could possibly get to go home this evening if any of this would happen and he perks up after his nap this afternoon! It's challenging keeping a one-year-old in a hospital room hooked to an IV, and I know he misses Ella! They've never been apart this long. We're praying he can go home asap, but know he's in the right place to get better!
