Owen had a pretty rough day today. After having a cough and being a little wheezy (but happy) yesterday, he woke up this morning miserable. By noon he was gasping for air and inconsolable, and I left work to take him to the doctor. We spent the next four hours at Kaiser waiting for Owen to stop crying so the doctor could listen to his chest, getting three breathing treatments and a chest x-ray, and waiting some more. Luckily Owen pulled through at the end and started breathing a little more normally, or else we would've ended up in the ER. Long story short, Owen has bronchiolitis and he got an inhaler and prednisone, and we go back to the doctor tomorrow morning. I took this photo as he started to feel better between breathing treatments, and he played with a water bottle and watched "Follow That Bird" on a VHS tape they had. Long day--now I'm ready for some sleep; let's see if Owen will let that happen!
