I really did have the scare of my life on Saturday. And you know what, it just makes you go through the scenario, "what would I do without him," quickly. I had just gotten Aaron up from his nap because he was making alot of wierd noises...and I was tickling his back on the couch. He was breathing really shallow and whining alot...and had a high temperature (103 degrees).
Then, he just
stopped breathing. It was the scariest feeling. It was for a half a minute and then resumed but needless to say he say the doctor. After a chest x-ray, and doing a pulse-occ. measurement he said that we needed to take him to the hospital for a really large case of
pneumonia. Well, if anyone knows how much I hate hospitals (bad memories) we negotiated and did steroid shots and 2 breathing treatments in the clinic; then let us take him home. I slept in his room and it was a long night (and has been a long week so far). Now that he has had his antibiotic for 24 hours he is no longer contagious, but the vomiting and diarrhea is getting very old. I just
love our little Aaron and the thought of not always having him is terrifying. Now I am not so impatient with him and all his messes.
Now, to not have to end on a sad note, I will tell a funny story about him...while in AZ Aaron got a girlfriend. He dragged her everywhere, always went to her, I caught him staring at her, and he was just infatuated with her. Too bad she is 20 years older than him (and already married!) It was my sister-in-law Mayra. She is georgous isn't she? I don't blame him!
It was un-canny how much he took to her and it was super funny. He has never done that with anyone else like this before! It was hilarious! I hope she didn't get sick of him following her around! We referred to her as his girlfriend all week...and you know, she would be a catch for him...but, maybe he will just have to find someone like her...after his mission!
