RSV has struck the Beffa house! What a sickness filled 9 days it has been. First, Jacob had croup last week and was home for 5 straight days. Then on Tuesday Brenna started to have a cough. I assumed it was a small touch of what Jacob had and didn't think too much of it. On Saturday we grew a little more concerned and asked Nonna to come listen to her chest. She suggested we see the doctor. Saturday morning we called Dr. Bob and he met us at the office to see her personally. He heard the wheezing in her lungs too and wanted to test for RSV. The test came back immediately as positive and minutes later she was getting her first breathing treatment. After a little scolding from Dr. Bob about how I should have brought her in sooner, we were on our way home with a nebulizer machine for breathing treatments every 4 hours. We are continuing to watch her very closely and are doing our best to stay out of the hospital .. so far so good but no promises from Miss Brenna. Please say a little prayer for her!
Here are a few pictures of the kids the past few days...
They LOVE their Anywhere chairs from Pottery Barn. Brenna got a sneak peak at hers since Jacob found her 1st birthday present. This was when Jacob was just getting over croup and Brenna was just getting her cough. I believe this was Brenna's 3rd outfit of the day as well (in case you were wondering why it doesn't match at all).. ha, ha
Brenna getting a breathing treatment at home... doing well here but she hates them!
