Exhaustion!


So the last 24 hours have really run me down. Last night around 8:00pm I get a call from Jonathan informing that he was taking himself to the ER. If you know Jonathan you know that something really has to be wrong in order for him to do this. He had been saying for a few days that his arm and back hurt and now he was complaining of not being able to catch his breath or take a deep breath. When Jonathan had his wreck back in 2005 and collapsed both of his lung, we were informed then that he could sneeze wrong and it could collapse them again. He said he was in so much back that he was afraid that might have happened. After a 5hour ER visit he was diagnosed with inflammation of the lining of the lung and it also showed some fluid build up. Thank goodness it wasn't collapsed because I really didn't feel like driving to Ohio with Landon at 10:00pm. They sent him home or shall I say his home away from home with a Z-pack, inflammatory meds, and Vicodin! Who in there right mind gives a trucker Vicodin! He is feeling so better today, but still in some pain. Hopefully he will get some rest this weekend on the road somewhere. On to Landon......He had his monthly pulmo appt today and unless we need them again for anything, it was our last!!!! They said that Landon looked AWESOME!!!! and to keep up the good work. His weight today was 19lbs 9oz and was up from 19lbs 4oz from last Friday. Dr. Austin did change his albuterol and pulmicort nebulizers to inhalers now, which makes life so much easier. Now instead of having Landon sit with a mask that he hates for 15mins, we do 2 puffs and done. After our apt that lasted 3 hrs in which 2 1/2 hrs of those were us waiting. By the time Odessa and Dr. Austin came in to see Landon he was beyond ill. Afterwards, Landon and I met up with Nikki and gave her a break from the hospital by taking her to lunch. She has been there since July between her and Payton's hospital stays and is looking at at least another 2 months before thoughts of going home. Please continue to pray for Nikki and Princess Payton. Landon is ready to play with Miss P! Also continue to pray for Laura and Conner, Mollie and Tyler, and Tiffany and her little peanut! Well tomorrow is a big day for us. Tatum has her 1st dance recital! I can't wait to see how cute she is. I just wish her Jon Jon was here to see her!
