Quick...what's the number for 911?

So after a couple of days of Dane being a little fussy and not having the best appetite, the under lying issue reared it's ugly head at 1:30am Thursday morning. We woke up to Dane trying desperately to cry, only thing is you have to be able breath well to cry...which wasn't in his favor at the moment. Chad and I sprung into action mode, we hooked up the nebulizer and Chad gave him a breathing treatment while I contacted the hospital closest to us to see if we could bring him (I was concerned because they didn't have a pediatric unit), the suggested that we call 911 and let the paramedics decide where he should go. After a long hard though out decision (really it was only like 30 seconds) we decided to go ahead and call since he was still gasping and wheezing. The fire department arrived first where they noticed that he was retracting when he was breathing so they gave him another breathing treatment...the paramedics showed up shortly after, and none of them could figure out how to get the pulse ox monitor to work on Danes fat foot, so we had no idea what his saturation levels were. Based on what they were seeing they though it best to take him to hospital. Chad rode in the ambulance (I still had my jammies on) I got dressed and followed the ambulance. We were heading to PCH when we were told that they were not taking any ambulances, then we were going to Banner but they also didn't want us, I read that most of the emergency rooms have been full with some really sick kiddos...so we ended up at St. Joe's. They diagnosed him with croup, and gave him some special steroids to open up his throat which was swollen. He had a 102 fever, so they did a chest xray too, which thankfully looked great. So after breathing in some steroids and being on a constant cool mist we were released at around 6:00am. We think that he is on the mend, he still has a nasty cough and we are praying it doesn't settle in his lungs...but so far so good. It is a miracle in itself that this is the first time that he has been sick, and with the flu season starting to peak now we still have several months of trying to keep him healthy. At least we are almost over the hump though!
Katie came down in the morning and asked "what was all the racket I heard at around 2?" It cracked me up that she would hear a bunch of noise and not even get out of bed to check it out, that's a Robinson for you!
