Update

Poor Mattie. 2 Hours at the pediatrician's office, and another hour at the radiology dept at St. Marks confirmed Pneumonia.
He is so exhausted from breathing and coughing so hard that he can hardly keep his eyes open, yet when he starts to fall asleep his wracking cough wakes him up.
His sats were 89-91% which is on the low side. He was going to send us up to Primary's to Spend the night but He decided to send us for the xray first, and now we're going to hit him with some major Antibiotics and hopefully avoid the hospital. We have to be back to the clinic first thing in the morning to check his oxygen sats again. PUH-LEASE let the Antibiotics kick in fast.

Hopefully, he can get over this sickness now that they got him figured out.
