This was our Easter:
-we were awoken by Liam a little before 5a.m. because he was having a croup attack
-I gave Liam some meds to reduce the swelling in his throat while Sean looked frantically for my glasses so I could drive Liam to the hospital
-I put Liam in the car and then decided there was no way I could drive him-he was too bad
-Called 911 and sat in the driveway with Liam while Sean called 911 again because Liam was getting worse
-Went to the hospital, got the meds that he needs, and Liam was fine (It amazes me how effective the meds they give him for croup are. I wish we could have them at home and trust me, I have asked. He gets it enough that it would save everyone a whole lot of trouble. This episode was definitely in the top three worse cases of croup he has had and it is very scary. Sitting with your child in an ambulance is no fun.)
-Came home and fell asleep
-Totally missed church
-Opened Easter baskets
-Had Easter Egg Hunt
-Made Easter Cake
-Went to Sean’s aunt’s house for family meal
