Round TWO for Croup!

Alyssa is finally on the road of getting better.. her coughing has lessend and her Happy mood is back... WHEN low and behold Dom has fallen victim! On Friday, he hit his hand on the kitchen table before I left to work (6:30am) and didn't stop complaining/crying! So Ben calls me and is concerned at this point (8:30am).. I say just take him to school! And before you know it, Dom's school calls saying his been complaining and crying (9:30am). So Ben does a U-turn and picks him up... We decide to make him an appointment to the doc... He gets there and of course "NOTHING" is wrong.... He instead gets two shots! Ouch!
So now moving into the evening, he's running a fever... at first we thought it was the shots, but before long he's coughing/crying and sounding like a seal barking! Now Dom has Croup! The only problem is he got it to the 10th power! He was having trouble breathing, so there goes Ben back to the docotor with him. They ended up giving him a steroid shot on his Inner Thigh (ouch!)... It has helped and now he'll be back to school tomorrow! I hope this is the last of croup... ! I'm Beat!
