Synagis

Teeter received his 7 synagis shot of the season last Friday... he's been getting progressively SICKER with each one as far as how he reacts to it. Hopefully the RSV season will not require a May shot this year! And, here's hoping that his body will "reset" itself before next year's RSV season so he doesn't start in October with this reaction.

He had the runs for two solid days after this months shot. Not good for a kiddo who already has trouble keeping weight on... but somehow he only lost a pound and he's gained 2 ounces back already. Such a trooper!

And, we think he's over his respiratory illness (almost seven weeks of the sickies). So, maybe just maybe we can start to make some progress in the eating department again! And, maybe mama and daddy can get some sleep!

Your season is still going? I'm so sorry. I was THRILLED to hear our season was over March 31st!!! Cameron was not himself for days after the shot. He didn't feel good, his sats dropped and he was just so quiet. I know he needed it, but I really didn't look forward to the synagis clinic at all.

We won't get our last visit from the home nurse till later this month for A's shot. We have had no problems with them and I am very happy to say he has not had any respitory problems! His pulmonologist would like him to have the injections again next year, but don't know if our insurance will go for that.

We just learned today that our season is NOT over and Teeter may need the May shot afterall (yuck!).

And, his respitory junk is BACK... it has been seven solid weeks now. He might have pneumonia, he had a chest x-ray today.

Poor kiddo has to try to hard to do everything, I wish he could just not have the sickies on top of it so he would have it a little easier.
