spent the night in the ER. but, thankfully, we managed to get home around 4 this morning with new meds on board. no pneumonia, but the chest x-rays did reveal several "viral" markings - which is common with this flu. he was not exhanging as much air as he should have been - so we had breathing treatments and now have an inhaler at home. the vomiting resumed - still suspected to be a common part of this flu for some - new meds were given while there, with a new prescription for that also. he is not dehydrated, thank goodness. he drank alot of fluid yesterday, but when it came time for him to try to eat something as minor as crackers last night - it didn't work out. because he is still running fever - we're hoping we can get and keep the antibiotic on board with the help of the new med.

he's sleeping now.

as i walked through the living room to tuck noah in when we finally got home ........
