So, yeah

Apparently, 2009 did not appreciate my letter below because it continued to mock me by putting Joshua in the PICU last night.

I'll try to make a kind of long story short. As Adam said below, Friday night Joshua and I were at the Urgent Care Center and the Mary Bridge ER, where they told us he had pneumonia and gave him breathing treatments and sent us home with antibiotics. On Saturday, the antibiotics seemed to be helping a little, but there wasn't rapid improvement like the doctors said it should be. After church on Sunday, a friend in our ward came over to help Adam give Joshua a blessing. Later that afternoon, we noticed his breathing seemed to be getting worse, so we packed up and went back to the Urgent Care Center. They gave him a few more breathing treatments and antibiotics, but his oxygen levels were still kind of low. They consulted with Mary Bridge ER and decided to send us over there. Luckily, it is just right next door. The ER nurses and doctors were pretty concerned when they saw his labored breathing, and eventually we ended up in the Pediatric ICU. Joshua has been on oxygen and IV antibiotics and fluids all night and this morning he seems to be breathing easier. I'm sure the fluid is helping him, too, because he wasn't interested in eating or drinking much at home on Saturday or Sunday.

Needless to say, Adam and I are stressed, but I am mostly relieved that Joshua is getting the oxygen and fluids that he needs that he wasn't getting at home. It sounds like he's going to stay another night in the PICU, and then I'm not sure how long he will stay in a regular room after that. Please keep the poor little guy in your prayers. They will be much appreciated!
