Wheezer #1 and Wheezer #2
I think the band Weezer must have had someone with asthma in it. We went to the doctor today (after having already been there on Monday) to check on Caleb's asthma. He was having an incessant cough (which is a sign of an asthma attack) even though he has been on Albuterol every 4 hours. So we went and Caleb sounded great, and then Brayden coughed and the doctor looked at him and said, "Has he ever wheezed?" Oh geez. Yes, once back in January. So she checked him all over and he is now Wheezer #2. However, he is a tiny wheezer whereas Caleb is not. This doesn't mean that Brayden has asthma, but if he keeps wheezing he might become a little asthma boy also. I hope not!!! In general he has always been a lot more healthy than Caleb, so let's hope it can stay that way. And apparently Vitamin D supplements can help with all this stuff, so we'll be starting on those. I'm really scared for the winter. I honestly don't know if I can survive another one like last year, and this seems like a bad start to be this sick in August. Wish me luck!

Oh man, I'm sorry! Praying for a mild winter!
Good luck Natalie. For your sake and the boys, I hope this gets better!
We've had a cold the last few weeks, too. It just doesn't seem like you should be sniffling during the hot days-- good luck!
Oh my!! Good luck with everything! My niece had asthma, but she actually out grew it!
Oh no, put them in a bubble all winter!! I wish I had endless funds so that you could come visit me too. I know, I am such a late replier :) I was about ready to tell you to post some more.
