So last night I posted about how Beck was pulled off oxygen on Wednesday this week, three days ago. Well we are officially back at that square one our doctor warned us about. Beck went to bed with a fever last night and woke up with one this morning. I took his pulse ox and he was pretty low, 81%. So we put his oxygen back on him and kept an eye on him. I called his doctor and spoke with her. She said he needed to be seen so away we went. We saw the doctor who immediately counted his breaths at 56 breaths per minute on oxygen. She was also concerned to see him retracting, using his entire torso to take each breath. So they did a direct admit and now here we sit in the hospital.
The really frustrating thing is that this is EXACTLY where we were 3 months ago, low oxygen, ear infections, fever. And still no definitive answer. We have had to increase his oxygen this time because of how hard he is working to breathe. It is scary to hold your little one and feel him working so hard to breathe. He is so miserable being here. Please pray that we can go home soon.
