Theo was admitted to the hospital last night for respiratory distress. He had a 103.8 temperature and has had round the clock breathing treatments. He does fine during the day with his oxygen levels but when he falls asleep, his levels drop in the 80's and they are supposed to be near 100%. He's sleeping with a nasal cannula tonight and that has helped keep his oxygen sats in the 90's. Poor baby Theo has an IV and has to be suctioned after his breathing treatments every 4 hours. He's pretty tired of being poked and prodded and did not sleep at all during the day today. The only thing that kept him happy today was eating Skittles! He's finally konked out and I'm praying he gets a solid few hours of sleep tonight. Jack and Daddy came to visit today and play with Theo. Theo was so happy to see his brother :) Please say some extra prayers for our little one. We're hoping to be discharged home for Christmas eve-eve, but we'll see.........
