Home finally...

Sorry I didn't post last night. After we got home and we got all settled in, Chad went and did some very much needed grocery shopping. When he got home we put the groceries away and got started on dinner. We ate dinner, cleaned up after dinner and that was pretty much our first day at home. I was off to bed a around 7:00. Everyone else was still awake when I went to bed, but according to Chad, CeJae was right behind me. He said CeJae was so excited to sleep in his bed. He had an okay night. Around 3:00 this morning he came into our room saying his chest was hurting. He was grunting and having trouble breathing. I got him to calm down and he fell asleep with me in bed. Chad was up at 4:00 to go to work and CeJae got up too. He was still complaining of his chest hurting so Chad got him some Motrin and some more Gatorade (we are really pushing the fluids...it helps keep the Pneumonia moving). He was able to get comfortable again and fall back to sleep. He slept until around 8:30 this morning, which is the most he's slept at once since this whole sickness started. We are suppose to limit his activeness just to make sure he doesn't over do it. Even though he's home he's not all better. The x-ray still showed a lot of Pneumonia in his chest and even though his lab work looked remarkably better it's still not normal. We have to be careful for a while longer. He's on a teaspoon and a half of Augmentin twice daily, for 10 days. That is a huge dose for a 3 year old (that's an adult dose). We have to take him into the Dr.'s office this week and then again next week. He is suppose to have another chest x-ray in about 2-3 weeks from now just to make sure it's cleared up. Yesterday while the Dr. was talking to Chad and I about what we need to do and not do with him. Chad said "so in the future as soon as he's complaining of his chest or heart hurting we're going to do an x-ray right?" The Dr.'s response was kind of funny. He said "well #1 I need to listen to mom!" He said "She tried telling us and I didn't listen and that was unacceptable." I am so glad that he realizes that I am not one of those moms that takes her kid in for the tiniest of things. When I say my child is really sick they are, and I do know what I am talking about. We were both very, very irritated with him in the beginning of this whole situation, but I think we are all on the same page, and once again we are comfortable with him treating our children. We still prefer his son, but we understand that we'll have to see him sometimes. I will continue to keep you posted on CeJae, and once again I want to thank everyone for praying for him and I want to thank everyone that has or has even offered to help. We have such wonderful friends and family!
