Hard Day For My Sweet Boy
Cole has cried alot today. Tonight has started off rough. The nurse and the Respiratory tech are very concerned with some stats and sound he sounds very restricted in his lungs. What concerns me is this is a ongoing change in the wrong direction from last night ...They said he is taking a turn in the wrong direction. I KNOW this is just something we need to deal with and look towards a better day tomorrow..But I would be lying if I did not say I am a mixture of sad and frustrated tonight.
We spent some time today trying to make him smile with my phone taking pictures. We were going to send one to his brothers and sister to say hello. This is about the best we got. I think this says it all..
Tomorrow is his birthday..This makes me sad...
Pray tomorrow is much better for my sweet boy.

Amy, i'm so sorry you're going through this. I have read your blog for a while and I just really wanted to tell you that i'm praying for you and Cole and the rest of the family. Just hang in there. Also, could you email me an address that I could send cole a gift card?? I would like to do that for his Birthday. Let me know.
My email is gcajigas72@gmail.com
My name is Linda.. I live in FL also :) Hang in there girl!
You won't know me, but I found your blog through the Riggs' family blog. My daughter has asthma, she's 18 and was diagnosed at about 2 1/2 years old. There are a lot of resources out there, I'd suggest you start with the doctor and ask about a support group. There is a lot on the internet, some of it isn't accurate but quite a bit of it is. The thing with asthma is that it is unpredictable. People who have it, such as my daughter, myself and many family members, can be fine one minute and then crash the next. But it doesn't always act that way. There are many different triggers that set it off, I strongly suggest that you consider allergy testing for your precious boy. It's not pleasant, but it can be very helpful. Once you know his triggers, you can help him to avoid them. The shots help to desensitize a bit, they are well worth the hassle involved with the testing and then the months/years of shots. You might contact the Lung Association, I got a lot of information from them when my daughter was first diagnosed. I have it, but mine is fairly light so I never had the severe case my daughter did. Asthma can be hard to deal with, but it is very treatable. Everyone's different, and it may take some time and trials but you will find what works for your son. You mentioned he had a respiratory illness recently, if it was RSV then it's not surprising that he developed asthma as there is a connection. Especially if there is a family history of asthma. I now you have your hands full, but you and your family are in my prayers. There is light at the end of the asthma tunnel!
In my thoughts and prayers, remains Cole and your whole family. I'm an adult ~ and having been on a trac and the the whole oxygen tube routine ... I can't imagine the confusion and fear that goes through his young mind.
Sleep well tonight Cole... may your Angels keep watch over you and tomorrow may you breathe with more ease!! Blessings HHL

praying and getting my group of ladies to pray too... for Cole and the Family.
Heavenly Father,
Please, please lay healing hands on Cole and his mother. Lord God, there is nothing worse than watching your child suffer. Although you allowed your Son to suffer and pay for our sins, I beg you to have mercy on this family. Lord please provide the necessary medical attention that Cole needs to get through this battle. And please allow his healing to provide respite for his mother. Lord, I trust you in every decision you make. But I beg you to allow all of us prayer warriors to intercede by lifting Cole & his mother up in prayer. Father God, please heal them both.
In Christ's precious name I pray,
Amen
Dear Lord, Please heal little Cole and Big Brother too! These boys are their mommy's world and she needs many healing prayers answered dear Lord. Hear our prayers Lord, hear our prayers! Hold them tight tonight and may the sun shine tomorrow! Amen from a reader in NYC :)
