Josh

I feel like I haven't seen some of you in a while. Josh has really been struggling with his allergies pretty much since February. This is the worse it's been. We've been to the pediatrician many times. It's hard to tell when one thing begins and the last illness ends. Because of his allergies, when he got the fever everyone else got in his class of 102.0, shortly thereafter he got a sinus infection, then, strep throat followed by croup and now he's wheezing. On top of the wheezing he had a fever of 102.5 almost all Sunday (though he did get some relief with the Tylenol I gave him). We're trying to get this under control. So, he's taking allergy medication and will be starting two inhalers. He's been sick for almost two months. I'm beginning to wonder if there's a next step? If so, when should it be? How many times does he need to get sick? Should he see a specialist perhaps an allergist or something. It's hard me to see him sick so much. Hopefully, this resolves itself soon and we'll be back around.

We miss everyone!
