My son, Connor (20 months), is sick. Spent the evening at the ER last night. It appears he has asthma (like his older brother). A bacterial infection that lead to chest congestion triggered asthmatic symptoms yesterday. Thankfully our experience with Keegan (8 years) has taught us the signs.
We took him to the hospital last night. X-rays revealed a small spot of pneumonia on his right lung. Thankfully his asthmatic reaction led us to the hospital which brought about X-rays to discover pneumonia in it’s early stages. We’re grateful for the doctor’s cautious, “let’s be certain” approach.
Connor is doing better today. Actually up and running around like a toddler should.
So, I’m sharing this with my community of friends so you will surround us in prayers. Pray for his recovery. That we slow down our world and allow him time to heal.
Thanks for praying.

Being a mom with two kids with RAD I understand the fears and concern. I will be lifting Connor in prayer. Glad the drs. caught the pneumonia early!

As a mom with 3 with asthma–you’ve got the prayers! I’ve been through the late nights, ER visits, treatments, pneumonia, and all the praying that those breaths keep coming. It’s tough to watch your kids go through it but if it’s any encouragement–I have 3 very healthy, athletic, unlimited young teen guys now! Hang in there…

Thank you all for the prayers. Keep them coming. An update on Connor. He’s doing better. We’re not in the clear but he is tremendously better today. I’ll keep you up to date on his progress.
