S.O.S.

Just tossing out a quick prayer request. Eamon has a cold - low grade temp., increased heart rate, "junkie" sounding with lots of coughing/sneezing. Simple cold, but not for Eamon. Immediately, he begins to experience respiratory distress. We have spoken to his Dr and plan to muscle through the night and be seen in the morning.

We have increased his O2 quite a bit (normally .25 l/currently 1.5 - 2 l), giving him nebulizer treatments along with plenty of chest PT. He is tired from battling through the day and is resting at the moment.

I am not prone to panic with Eamon, but it is unnerving. He is just not comfortable, and we need to know when it is an appropriate call to go to the ER.

Prayer works - we have seen evidence countless times!
Thank you for lovin' our boy with us,
Tracy XO

I have been away from my computer way too much! I will be praying tonight and this week for a quick recovery. You know you can count on the Engels. Jesus and I meet and talk regularly! We will be talking about the Barclay Prince! Love to you all as well!
