The Length a Quadruplet Brother Goes To Get Some One On One Attention
You might have caught that Isaac spent the wee hours of the morning in the ER with his daddy. Apparently, he was in desperate need of some one on one time. So much for a plain ole boring fever.
Shortly after we tucked him into to bed for the night he woke up in a panic, gasping for air. It was obvious that his airway was constricted, and so we immediately administered a breathing treatment (only the 2nd one he’s ever had one in his life) and he asked to return to bed. Not an hour passed, before he awoke again, even more upset and having an even more difficult time breathing. Although he wasn’t coughing much, he had the classic seal bark and his airway sounded textbook strider. He calmed down with in the steamy bathroom, but we didn’t feel comfortable putting him back to bed.
Brad took the little dude to the ER while mama stayed back with the other three sickies. Just look at the poor little pitiful dude:
They were seen in a flash and had awesome care at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital. Can’t say enough about that special facility. So thankful to have great care so close.
After getting his fever down some and getting a steroid treatment he was feeling more like the little Isaac we all know and love:
Hopefully we’ll ALL be on the mend soon.
We are soooo grateful for your prayers not only for our little sickies, but for keeping Brad’s family in your thoughts and prayers as well.
I <3 garanimals (we have that same shirt). And the fact that your little boy started feeling better too of course.
I am so glad he is feeling better! I can imagine your relief.
Take care!

Croup is scary. It makes you feel for them so sad. So glad to hear he is doing better. Hope everyone gets better soon.
I have to admit since I was just down the road from the ER where I figured you took him I literally felt (for a few minutes) like getting out of my pjs and going. Then I realized that was stupid and wouldn't do any good and thought about coming there so you could go to the ER… then, I realized the best thing I could do is just keep praying. Soooo glad that he's doing better!! I LOOOOOVE you all!!
So glad he's feeleng better!
So glad that a lil 'pick me up' did the trick for him! Hope the boys are all feeling better.
I'm glad Isaac is feeling better and hope everyone will be well soon. I think he really looks like Henry in those pictures, I've never noticed it before!
Kids are resilient and always upbeat as long as we, as parents, are there for them show our love.
