Our Little Trooper

So, Maddox has been pretty sick for the past month, just with a cold that turned into an ear/sinus infection. Well, after giving him his antibiotics for almost a week and no progress had been made I took him back into the doctors. Fortunately, progress had been made and the infections had cleared up. However, what was going on with this horrible cough he has had for so long!?! The nurse did an albuterol treatment and then sent us down for a chest xray (which was like the hardest thing for me to watch. He had to sit in this tight little plastic tube while I held his arms above his head... so sad!) The treatment helped a lot. Turns out he has some sort of bronchial infection. So, we got a nebulizer (sounds like something fake from a sci-fi movie) and are doing the albuterol treatments as he needs it every day. The first time we did it he cried through the whole thing but he has gotten so much better! We are so proud of our little guy and so happy he is feeling better!

Tommy always wants to be the one to hold and comfort him :) He loves his little boy!
