We love being home

Many of you know that Jacob was in the hospital again from Sep 22-26.  On Sep 22 he started the day with a slight wheeze and by 5:00 pm he had blue lips and was being transported by ambulance from our pediatrician's office to Primary Children's hospital.  I went in the ambulance with him and was slightly disappointed that they didn't use the sirens to get us there faster.  Jacob was stable, but I still would like the full experience.  Anyway, after a very long night in the ER and in his hospital room, Jacob finally started to improve.  The next few days were just a blur of doctors, nurses, little sleep for anyone and a very tiny room. 

Jacob is improving and his official diagnosis was that he had a virus (could be the same one he had before) that made his lungs go haywire.  We hope that it never happens again or to anyone else.  Needless to say we are very happy to be home.

We're so glad he's doing better and that it was just a virus and not something bigger.
