Noah update!

A quick update: Noah was admitted into the hospital (Breckenridge Hospital) last night and was not feeling good at all. He had been miserable for a few days and not eating or drinking. So he was very dehydrated. They pumped him full of fluids through the night and did tests this morning. He tested positive for R.S.V. and is being treated with antibiotics (they told us it was the "Cadillac" of antibiotics). His IV came out this morning only because it was not in very well. They did the best they could but with a screaming, wiggling, 17 month old that is a hard thing to do. Poor thing was so scared. They have not had to put it back in as of now, as long as he keeps drinking about 3 oz. an hour. So we are pushing the liquids as much as he will allow us. He is sleeping right now and that is why I was able to slip away for awhile. Dad is sleeping as well, surprise, surprise!!!! So we are waiting now for the Dr. to come back this evening and give us the next direction. We may come home tonight if all goes as planned or we will try for tomorrow sometime. Thanks for the prayers. We will keep you updated. Love, Erika and Cory
