Laim woke a few hours after going to bed barking/coughing like a seal and having a hard time breathing.....ahhhhh......croup!
After sitting in the bathroom with the shower running to provide lots of steam and then a trip outside sitting on the porch till he could breathe and then fall asleep once again, I was hoping the eventful late night evening was over.
Alas, he continued to be sick and miserable. Within 2 days he had quite a bout with fever, coughing and just being totally miserable.
He never takes naps anymore, yet he took 2 in one day. The rest of the day he laid about moaning and listless.
By the fourth day, he was feeling much better and his usual chatter box self was zooming around the house once again.
I was sitting the the living room, reading a book while he was talking non stop about something--yes, I wasn't listening, after a while his chatter begins to be too much :)
when, all of a sudden he proclaimed loudly, "I know what made me sick, the green beans did! They made me sick Mom!" I know he doesn't like green beans, but I had no idea how much he did. You mean ole green beans leave my boy alone!
Good thinking, Liam. Way to make the green beans the scapegoat.
ReplyDeleteWhoa...he was really sick. Glad he is better.
LOL! No more green beans in your house!
