Home from the hospital

Last night, Thing Two and I took a trip to Black Diamond to visit their wonderful hospital and staff. It all started with the cat allergies. Now that we've re-located our cat and cleaned our house of cat hair and dander he is super sensitive to cat hair. He was most likely exposed to some this weekend which stirred up his coughing and wheezing. Hence the drive out to BD. I was worried about allergy induced asthma but of course when we get there his O2 level is a nice 96%. So, we were told to keep doing what we're doing - keep him away from cats, follow through with the allergy testing and monitor the wheezing.

So, while at the hospital Alex starts to make up songs about God to pass the time. It was more like a hollaback chant:

"God knows everything, God knows everything
God sees everything, God sees everything
If everyone dies, if everyone dies
God will use itty bitty pocus, to make us new ones"

We don't often talk to God at home so I'm sure this stems somehow from attending Catholic school.

So after he sings me and the doctor his song he says "See Mom, I can write my song just like Nickelback". Guess who his hero is? Chad Kroeger. Hopefully Alex will never adopt any of Chad's hairstyles :o)

Glad to hear his O2 levels were good. Good job being proactive about it. It's hard when your kids can't breathe.
