Drama at the Lott Household

As usual, I woke up with big plans this morning. Well, needless to say...those plans didn't work out as well as I had hoped. As I made breakfast for the older kiddos, Carlos had a bowel movement that literally sent him into an asthma attack. For those of you who read my blog, you'll remember he has a hard time pooping! Gotta love that info! Anyway, he strained sooo much that he couldn't breathe. I rushed him to the ER, of course they took us right back, and agreed that he couldn't breathe. They gave him another breathing treatment (I gave 3 before I decided we were in an emergency situation), and did a chest x-ray! Turns out the poor little booger did in fact have an asthma attach, but he also has pneumonia in the right lung, and a partial collapse of the right lung. UUUUGGGGGGHHHHH....It never ends. Seriously. Mina also had an appointment today, she has an enlarged lymph node, it has been swollen for 2 years, and we were told not to worry unless it changes at all. Well, last week it changed. It became very hard, and more immobile. But, Praise God, it is nothing. He said her cold made it change, and to continue watching it!! So, I got nothing done today! Nothing!!! Tomorrow, more of the same...Carlos has a follow-up appointment and Michel has a urologist appointment. Did I mention, Emory is sick! Sorry for all the griping, it's just that when it rains it pours!! Anyway, I'll post again tomorrow..I promise it will be a happy post. In the meantime, keep my little ones in your prayers, Please!
