Green beer days have long been an event from our past but being at Children's Memorial Hospital for St. Patrick's Day was not where we ever thought we'd ever be. Alex had complications from the virus that causes the common croup cough and the poor little guy had trouble breathing only hours after his cough started, which landed us in the ER. After 3 breathing treatments from a "dragon" mask that Alex really didn't think was fun, we were admitted for a night to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit to have his breathing monitored. Thankfully, the 3rd treatment was a charm and he rested well that night in his crib which was more like a cage. As for Will and I...we were more comfortable on the top bunk at Richard Hall but managed to catch a few moments of rest on the chair/bed. We are so happy that our little leprechaun is 100% better and home!
