My little Nickle has his first cold!!

They came over yesterday and he looked so pitiful. You can just tell in his eyes that he has a cold. I heard him cough for the first time yesterday. It was kinda cute, but mostly pitiful. He has had a runny nose for a couple of days, but yesterday it started getting worse. He is so congested. They took him to Children's this morning because he was having trouble breathing and his temp was 103.5! He received one breathing treatment. His temp went down but he had to stay there for 2 hours to make sure he was going to be well enough to go home. At the end of two hours he was checked again and then released to go home. The doctor told Tiffany he was really surprised they did not have to admit him. If his temp comes back, then they have to rush him back to the hospital. It's a viral infection, so no antibiotics!! He can take tylenol, and the doctor said they can crack a window and the damp air will make him feel better. They are watching him closely. Tiffany said he should be better in a couple of days. I don't like it when he's sick! :-( Hopefully he will feel better soon.
