My PooR BaBy




This past saturday my lil bby was admitted to desert banner hospital because he was having such a hard time breathing. It was so scary you could see his ribs and his whole body trying to help him breathe. it was a good call taking him into ER his oxygen levels were severely low and he wasn't getting enough oxygen so they hooked him up to the oxygen machine and we were taken straight into a room and immediately the nurses went to work checking all his vitals. this is the part i hate it was hard restraining myself from not jumping up and punching all these nurses. they stuck a tube up his nose down to his throat and took samples to take tests to make sure nothing was wrong my son crying and yelling mommy while i stood there helping 3 other nurses hold him down. i knew this was what they'd have to do that it was necessary to make sure nothing serious was going on. finally they took the tube out and he jumped into my arms my poor baby this was all my fault i wish there was some way i could shield away everything from ever hurting him. then we went through this whole thing 2 more times when they had to take blood. i hate this watching him suffer something i knew every mother would have to go through. we finally got settled in our room and it was so nice. the room was in the newly built pediatrics center where all the rooms had pull out couches, flat screen tv's, refrigerators, and internet. it was lil alex's fav. they had his movies on their tv programs finding nemo, bolt and monsters vs. alien. i think i know these movies by heart now..lol..so the hospital isn't as bad as i thought it would be and all the staff is very nice. hopefully my lil man will be out tomorrow i hope. i'm so proud of him he's being such a good boy. he misses playing tennis with his papa and keeps asking to go to his papa's house. his happiest time of the day is when his visitors are here. i love my family they're always here for him and they always bring me food ha ha ha the only thing my husband likes is that he can help himself to the galley where all the free food is ha ha ha but yea other than we are just hoping and praying lil alex will get better soon and we can all go home.

  2. Tio!!! you are back!!! yay!! I clicked on your profile a few weeks ago, and it didn't work! LOL! glad to see you back. I just recently got back too, probably since november i've been blogging. I love it though! I can't believe how big Alex is! he is such a cutie! Even though he don't look tongan (yet) he looks soooo much like you! Im sooo sorry that he is sick! I HATE HATE HATE when babies are sick. What does he have though? Jaida had rsv twice, once at three months then again at 4 months! it was HORRIBLE! ever since then, I won't let ANYONE come and visit unless the kids are sick free! LOL cause its so sad to see them suffer. Especially when you can't give them any medicine for it, and especially when they can't talk to tell you whats wrong. I hope he gets better, but i does sound fun there in the hospital room. Im sooo happy to see you guys are doing so well. Next time you go a trip yall should head out here! we have a nice extra room for guests! :)) plus we aren't that far away... I love Kassie too..I haven't met her yet, but she really is the best! You should call me sometime so we can catch up!!! 702-927-9448! Love you girl!
