For the past few days Nolan has not been feeling well and then last night he started getting much worse. My fear with having a winter baby was all the germs and illnesses, and unfortunately my fear came true. Last night his breathing started to become labored and he was not eating, and this morning his breathing only seemed to be getting worse. We decided it was time to call the doctor when we looked up the symptoms of RSV and he had every single one of them. The doctor asked us to meet him at his office to be evaluated. The doctor sent us over to the hospital for a chest X-Ray and RSV screening, and they both came back with bad news. The X-Ray showed fluid in the lungs and signs of dehydration and the RSV screening came back positive, so they told us they were going to admit Nolan to the hospital. He is getting IV fluids, respiratory treatments, antibiotics for an ear infection, and is being taken care of by great nurses and doctors. It is just a lot of monitoring and waiting. We will be here for tonight and the morning for sure, but possibly another night too.

:-( I was so sad and worried to hear the news tonight at your Mom and Dad's. We'll definately keep Nolan in our prayers.
Bless his heart, and yours, too. Wish we could be there to help. You have such loving, willing friends, that I know Rye will be in good hands. We love you and will keep you in our prayers.
If you need anything let us know. Poor little guy, hope he gets better really fast!
I remember when Jay had RSV. Not fun at all. If we weren't sick right now, I'd take Rye for you!
Poor little guy! Poor Mommy and Daddy! There is nothing worse than seeing a sick baby. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
