Everything has been progressing normally for Eli and we're still facing the same issues every day. How do we keep his CO2 down and get to a solution that will allow us to bring out little boy home.
Everything had been going fairly well for Patricia and I then I wake up this morning feeling like someone stuffed my sinuses full of cotton. Seems like I picked up a head cold somewhere along the way. I was just in to see my personal doctor on Monday to get some of my asthma prescriptions filled because we're getting into allergy season and I've been having some difficultly breathing lately. I should have known this was a precursor to getting sick. My asthma usually kicks in as my body starts to get run down fighting off a cold. Usually I don't notice anything different until the bug kicks me in the butt like it did this this morning. I spent the day sleeping while Patricia's sister took care of Ian and Obie and Patricia spent the day with Eli.
The issue we're now facing is how are we going to handle caring for everyone? I can't be around Eli if I'm sick and I'm sure the nurses and doctors would frown on it if I tried. Eli is in the NICU after all and the sick babies don't need to be exposed to another problem. That means Patricia is going to have to carry the torch when it comes to Eli for the next several days. Hopefully this cold doesn't hang on too long...
