doc visit for Jax today!

Landen and Jaxson both have nasty head colds.I have been giving both boys medicine.Jaxson's is worse and he was up quite a bit all night last night he was running a fever and the dumb thermometer broke.I made an appointment today for Jax.Yhe doc gave him a rocefan shot and a steroid shot.He also gave him oral high dose anti and a steroid too.He prescribed albutrerol for his his.He has pulmacort one time a day.The albuterol is a rescue.The doc is being aggressive with this because Jaxson cant have hise needed surgery unless he is over this.Also there is concerns with this sickness so its best to be aggressive with it.
Tomorrow Jaxson has a childrens mercy appointment...this should be interesting as they cannot sedate Jax to do the cat scan because he is sick.I am praying he does well for them.The stinky part is they are making me cut his food at 9 a.m and he dont get ct scan until 4 p.m. ughh.How do you tell a baby he cant have a bottle.This is going to be rough on him.He can have clear liquids but that does him no good and he has to have it thickened.Thickener cannot be used either UGHH.
On a good note... Jaxson weighed in today at 22 lbs 10 oz.I knew the stinker has gained some weight he is getting heavier.Now i hope to get Landen over this cold..He was miserable today.Tonight he was much better .If he is not better soon he is off to see the doc next.
Luckily both the girls have escaped this sickness although my husband didnt and is in full swing of it with the little guys.I am hoping i do not get it.Ok finally got jax to sleep its late i am headed to bed.
