It's a brave little boy...who loved Thomas the train...
Or a special heart bear...or a frog in the rain....
It's the need to remember...we are all in this plight....
It's their lives that remind us... we still need to fight!
It's in pushing ahead amidst every sorrow...
It is finding the strength to have hope for tomorrow.

Not again!!

So we had our outpatients appt this morning with Dr Spencer (respiritory) he was ok, then the next min he was scalding hot and navy blue...

so anyway we rang and asked if we could come early..they did his temp which by this time had come down to 37 with brufen and did his sats and they struggled to get to 70 then managed one 75 in th end we saw dr spencer, he wonders if ethan has intermittent aspiration and wants to do more stuff even tho theyve already done the bronch and barium etc....

they suctioned him and lots of red goo came out - he is obviously very sore..asked the cln to come down and they thought it could have been a plug of mucus but if he does it again to ring her...his sats came up to 77% by this time (they were 86% Friday!!) but they are ok with 77% so not too worried.

he came home and slept.. woke up played for 45 mins then just went really floppy and lay down he went even more navy - will post pic though it doesn't show it great as the flash kept turning him mega white!...

and sleepy his breathing was a little heavy but nothing major or i would've rang an ambulance. he had brufen again at 2.15 and although he cooled down it took him until 4.45 to perk up, was floppy sleepy lay on my knee just really out of it...Rang paddy and she has made an appt for wed morning, so in the meantime what do i do?! I cant ring an ambo and say er would u mind checking Ethan's sats please??
