Getting Better!

We had a rough weekend! On Friday, Weston was pumped on steroids so he was bouncing off the walls. That meant no naps for him. He went to bed at 7:00(so did we) but he woke at 10:00 coughing. Nathan and I tried everything to get him to stop coughing. I gave him a bath hoping the steam would help. At midnight, Nathan took him outside hoping that the cool air would help (doctor's instructions) but his cough woke all of the neighborhood dogs. We put in front of the humidifier, let him watch late night cartoons, and forced medicine down his throat but nothing seemed to work. Finally at 3:00 a.m. he went to sleep for two hours! The next day he felt worse so I quit giving him the steroid(it made him restless and mean) and Nathan managed to get him to drink the antibiotic. He slept for 14 hours Saturday night-uninterrupted! Today, he is feeling much better but he not completely himself. We have managed to keep his temperature down so NO seizures!

You can tell he wasn't feeling well here!



As you can see he is feeling much better today!
