Halle in the hospital

Poor Halle has asthma. Whenever she gets an upper respiratory virus, her asthma acts up. With this last cold she ran a 103-104 fever for 4 days just like Hope, but then her cough turned to croup and then the cold turned into Bronchiolitis.

I ended up having to take her to Children's hospital and we were there until 3:30 am. We're so thankful for Sharon and Nana to be able to have her help and her home to come back to that late at night. She even had to get up for work the next morning but wouldn't have thought twice about coming down to the hospital and taking Aidan and Hope home with her. Whew, what a night that was.
She is better now, but Chad spent the weekend coughing and feeling weak and miserable. It's June! We should be out camping and fishing! Sigh. It could be so much worse and we're so thankful for the health we do have! And the fact that Mama didn't catch it!

Hey Rebecca-
Rylee has the very same issues and I'm sorry to say, they continued until she was 6... This was our first year with NO trips to the ER! The high fevers are terrible to deal with :(.
