Abby's Trip to the ER!
Well, this morning I called in sick to work and Abby and I went to the Emergency Room. She has croup! Both she and Ryan have had it before, but this time it was obvious that Abby was having a hard time breathing. I could see her gasping and not being able to take in enough air. At the E.R. they monitored her blood oxygen level and decided she needed to be treated. They gave her a steriod to reduce the swelling in her throat and had me hold cool mist to her face (She was not too fond of that :) ). She is much better now and has been sleeping for a couple hours. Joe had to hold her upright all night because as soon as she was layed down she couldn't breathe. Based on how tired Abby is, I don't think either got much sleep!
