It has been two weeks since Dane started his breathing treatments, I have a feeling that he should have probably been on them sooner...but that just my Mommy opinion. He is still super loud sleeper, but while he is awake I can tell a big difference in his breathing. He doesn't seem to get so winded during play and isn't requiring quite so much sleep during the day. Not to mention that he looks like a handsome young fighter pilot with his breathing mask! We did get the firm talking to about RSV season from Dane's doc. Dane's lungs have zero reserve so we can't take any chances with him this winter, the doc said that if he got RSV it would put him back in the hospital and could potentially be fatal. Even healthy full term babies have died from RSV, so we are taking it very seriously. On the good side, since we live in AZ we will at least be able to go on walks, have a picnic on a blanket in the park, and of course we can go to Grandma and PapPap's house if they are healthy. Hopefully next winter his lungs will be strong enough that we won't have to be quite so protective...but if not he is definitely worth all the extra steps to keep him healthy!
