emmy's breathing got a lot faster as the day went on, so i tried calling her ped but he wasn't answering his cell. so i called health link to find out the # of resps/min that is normal and they said to bring her in right away.... ugh!
so off to the ER we went around 6pm. we are home now, it's 9:45pm. it was a relatively short ER trip including an ER visit from santa and elves, and a puppy mascot??? and a beautiful harpist (sp?)
they believe she has the dreaded RSV (of course she got it, she gets EVERYTHING!) and sent her home on steroids by g-tube and we are to go back if she gets worse. they weren't sure on admitting her or not -- it was like they asked ME my thoughts??? "how worried are you? do you think she should stay?" um NO, i don't want her in the hospital for christmas!
so i just hope she pulls through the next few days. we go back to have her checked tomorrow afternoon.................
her resps were at 70/min and her O2 90% so not too bad.... they did 3 chest x-rays (she loves those... NOT) and they came back fine. i'll update tomorrow................ please get better before christmas emerson!!!
